Install Successful, But Black Screen After Reboot?

[JeZ-l-Lee]

Hi,

I tried to install Kubuntu 14.10 64Bit onto my desktop from DVD.
The installation is successful, but I get a black screen when rebooting?
It is a clean install from DVD.
Desktop has Intel Core i5, 16GB RAM and an nVidia GeForce GTS 450 1GB GDDR5 GPU.
I am currently running Kubuntu 14.04 L.T.S. 64Bit on same desktop with no problems.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Probably the video driver. First try nomodeset during boot:

At the grub prompt, type "E" then where it says "quiet splash" type in "nomodeset" and then CTRL-x

You could try installing the nvidia drivers from the text console:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install dkms linux-headers-`{uname -r}` nvidia-current nvidia-settings

You might want to read through /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see whats going on.
