    Hi guys,
    My Aspire One ZG5 (Linux + 8GB SSD) freezes part way during boot, when it gets as far as the blue screen with the Aspire One logo.
    I can go into the setup menu, and change options and change them back again, but it makes no difference.

    I've also tried using the recovery DVD. This starts off OK, unpacks the kernel, but then it gets stuck when it reaches the WElcome screen with the option of clicking on next or exit.

    I wondered whether this might be a problem with the SSD. I've even thought of installing XP, just to see if it works.

    Any ideas anyone?
    Thanks
