HP pavilion zx5040us - Install No Display
Just got a HP Pavilion zx5040us and want to replace XP Home with Redhat 9 or Fedora so I can use my laptop at work.
I'm very new to the scene so I checked out the linux-latop site but didnt find any information on my model. Google also came up empty.
When I go to start the install I choose GUI mode and shortly after that the screen goes blank, the same when I try 'linux lowres' or linux 800x600' or even 'linux text'. Any ideas would be helpful in determing what is happening with the screen. I did check the BIOS for turning plug-n-play off but there is no option for that. Looking into upgrading the BIOS.
Thanks for any help you can provide with this.
