installing Ubuntu on an Alienware M17Xr 4 laptop



I'm trying to install ubuntu on an alienware M17X r4, when I get to the install screen it is hard to describe but it's like 4 versions of the same screen but in pink and with a lot of lines.



This is with my Nvidia GTS 660M turned on, not my Intel Graphics, my computer has a switch to choose between them.



During install, I would switch the the Intel Graphics. Once you have it installed you can go back and install the drivers for the Nvidia card.
