    My system is a new MSI GT725. I have downloaded the iso file and am trying to use it as the live cd. I start the system with the cd in place. It starts with the Linux Mint screen and I hit enter. I hit enter on start mint and the progress bar screen comes up. Then after a while it goes to black screen and asks for a sudo command... I have tried this in compatibility mode and it does the same thing. I have been searching and am not finding any useful info on this. All of the guides just show it going to the desktop after the progress bar screen. Is there something I have done wrong or is it my laptop? Is there a special command to get the program to progress at this point? :confused: :confused:
