-----------------------------------------

I have precisely the same machine as the poster above and experienced
precisely the same problem after upgrading to 10.04 using Update
Manager.

I've installed all updates since full release and problem still not
solved:

Machine boots to initial Ubuntu splash screen for about .35 sec then
goes black. Only way to escape is to hold down power button. Can boot
using "low-res graphic mode" but system eventually locks up. Also of
note, on this dual boot Windows XP system, after a short while of
loading XP, it also locks up and goes to BSOD. Never done that
previously.
