MSI K8N Neo2-F Nforce 3 Ultra

2GB of DDR Memory stock settings no oc

ATI Raedon x1950 Pro AGP no oc

Does booting into safe graphics mode help? Ubuntu has never been kind to me on machines with ATi Graphics, Intel FTW.

I've not had a chance to really look over 8.04 in liveCD mode yet but there has got to be a safe-mode setting. Hope this helps in some small way
