Questions:<br>
<br>
1. Is your machine configured to boot from CD-ROM<br>
<br>
2. Is your Ubuntu distro 64-bit or 32-bit. <br>
<br>
3. Is your Ubuntu distro a live CD or Net-Install. <br>
<br>
4. You state that your machine is 32 bit. What is the specific
model of CPU in your machine? It would help to identify if it
provides 64-bit support or is truly limited to 32-bit processing.<br>
<br>
5. What error messages are you seeing when you try to boot/install
your Ubuntu distro? Please post the exact error messages returned. <br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Kim<br>

I bought a copy of Ubuntu 17.04 and tried to install it on
an old 32 bit computer. After booting to the CD it gives me
an error message it cannot install for many reasons. It will
not even run Ubuntu without installing. I know the computer
works because it will boot into Windows XP. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
