I have gone through all the posts and I am pretty sure I know how to fix it, but I can't seem to be able to get to a prompt.



I see loading grub and then nothing from that point forward. No keystokes at any point give me access to a login prompt. I'm not sure what to do at this point.



I installed 16.04 and 17.10with the same result.

At first you should determine specification of your monitor - especially its native resolution.

Then you can adjust it manually in configuration file.



Try the following:



  1. press Shift during boot to access GRUB menu


  2. in GRUB press e, then



    • add nomodeset to the end of linux line OR

    • add vga=795 (1280x1024, see other options here) to the end of linux line


  3. then hit Ctrl+x or F10 to boot.


Remember good value of vga= and then place it in /etc/default/grub:



GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash vga=795"


Then execute sudo update-grub and reboot.

  • It is very strange. I went to similar issue with HP ProLiant, but GRUB opened normally. "Out of range" message was shown by monitor after GRUB.
