I have 2 PC's that i wanted to put linux on 

First one is pentium 4 with integrated gpu and 1gb of ram. 

I put in the disc, it installs, i boot it up. It says something about graphics drivers witch i can't even find for windows because intel is not even supporting it anymore and without them its unusable.

2nd PC intel core 2 duo e4600, 2gb ram, hd 6570.

I put in the disc, it loads, then it shows some rainbow colors restarts and does it all again. Nothing works.

And i did all this with a burnt dvd 

If any of you had this problem tell me how to fix it because i can't find anything on the internet. Ubuntu works fine btw 

Specs: AMD FX 6300 @ 4ghz, Asus R9 270 OC, 8gb Corsair xms3, Cooler Master GX 550w PSU, WD 500 blue, Gigabyte  GA-970A-DS3

I can't seem to find anything relating to this issue try booting from usb? can't seem to think of anything that would be wrong with your system unless hardware is just saying nope

might be helpful if i install win xp on pentium 4 everything is in 4 bit. With windows 7 it looks kind of decent
