I am currently trying to install two operating systems on my PC.
So far I have Windows 10 installed on one hard drive with a secondary hard drive for data storage. On my third hard drive, which is an SSD, I am trying to install a Linux OS. However, there is a problem. When the Linux starts to install, all my USB ports stop working so I am unable to use my mouse and keyboard. I thought this may be due to a disc not done properly or a problem with a specific OS so I tried a few things. I tried three different Linux OSes. On disc, I tried Ubuntu and Kali. The problem occurred when I clicked install or "try before installing". And on bootable USB I tried Linux Mint, however, I was unable to get that to work.
My PC specs:
CPU - AMD Piledriver FX-8 Eight Core 8350 Black Edition 4.00GHz (Socket AM3+) Processor
MotherBoard - Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 AMD 990FX (Socket AM3+) DDR3 Motherboard
GPU - Gigabyte GeForce GTX 770 WindForce 3x OC 4096MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card GV-N770OC-4GD)
RAM - TeamGroup Elite Black 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C11 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit (TED316GM1600HC11DC01)
Hard Drive 1 - Western Digital Caviar Green 1TB Internal Hard Drive, 3.5" HDD, SATA III - 6Gb/s, IntelliPower, 64MB Cache, 8ms, OEM
Hard Drive 2 - Western Digital Caviar Green 3TB Internal Hard Drive, 3.5" HDD, SATA III - 6Gb/s, IntelliPower, 64MB Cache, 8ms, OEM
Hard Drive 3 - SanDisk SSD 64 GB SATA III 2.5-inch Internal SSD (This is the one I want to put Linux on)
Thanks for any help,
Dan
Edit
Just a note - The most recent OS I am working on trying to install is Linux Kali. This is burned on a DVD and the USB ports work until this point http://docs.kali.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/01-install-select.png
I am not using a laptop so both the mouse and keyboard stop working.
Edit please see here for more info. This is still an open thread. Not sure how to fix as of yet.
