Then I reboot and I receive a blank screen with ubuntu colours(orange/purple) and a total freeze , I tried to launch by holding shift key then choosing ubuntu from GRUB menu but same issue what shall I do now

  • I would try nomodeset during boot (at grub, edit your entry & add it there as a kernel option [ie. linux line]). I'd also suggest removing quiet splash from the line so more information is shown, and you can see more - but if new this may not help you. With your RAM & cpu (I use dual-core-duo's too) I'd suggest a lighter flavor, eg. Xubuntu or Lubuntu (your tastes will dictate the best for you, even MATE, KDE .. as GNOME is rather heavy, but this is a personal choice) -- if nomodeset works askubuntu.com/questions/38780/…
