I was originally running Windows 7 Ultimate x64 on a Packard Bell. I decided to install Ubuntu 12.10 on my computer, used Wubi, and got to the screen where I could choose the OS. However, when I chose Ubuntu, a purple screen pops up. The hard drive DEL blinks, stops, and then the Caps Lock blinks. And then, nothing happens.

I try to use normal CD instead of Wubi and I was able to mount the iso on a USB drive using Universal USB Installer. I can get to the screen where I choose the boot order, select the USB drive, and then I get to a screen where Ubuntu seems to be 'loading' (purple with Ubuntu logo and name in the middle). Then, all of a sudden, I get a "Kernel Panic - Not syncing: fatal exception in interrupt" error message.

My specs : Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T5850 @ 2.16 GHz / 4 GB of ram / Packard Bell computer from 2007. / Windows 7 Ultimate x64 installed.

What should I do? I am not very good in computer sciences, I have tried CTRL+ALT+T, and ALT+F2, but nothing works.
