18.04/18.10 cannot run on Asus FX503VD laptop
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
The laptop is Asus FX503VD and I tried ubuntu 18.04 and 18.10. After installation finished and I pressed the "Restart Now", the system always halt without actual reboot. I can then power off by pressing the power button then entered the system in the case of 18.10; In 18.04, the desktop will not show up after I entered the password. Even the 18.10 can allow me to enter the desktop, but it halted in the step 2 or step 3 of the "welcome to ubuntu" wizard. I can open the terminal, but the system again halt after I run one or two simple commands. It seemed there was always 100% CPU program in the top of the 'top' list.
Is that possible I can use ubuntu with this laptop? Thanks!

And, I found I can run the "live ubuntu" from the installation usb without a problem. It looks like a hope ...

Does it have a Nvidia graphics card?

@GabrielaGarcia, yes it has a Nvidia GTX 1050 graphics card. Is this the root cause?

It certainly is if you didn't install the recommended Nvidia proprietary drivers. Search for "Software & Updates", open the "Additional Drivers" tab, select and apply the recommended driver version, reboot. You may need to add thenomodesetboot parameter until you do it, otherwise it may not boot a GUI or freeze when it does. The default open-source driver for Nvidias does not properly support yet the new chips.
