black screen while booting to install on Lenovo v570

[beko]

Hello, Just got my new laptop Lenovo v570 (Intel core I5 with Intel HD 3000 and 4 GB of rams) and tried to install pclinuxos-kde-2012.02 dual boot with windows 7 ultimate 64bit  ...downloaded it then put it on my usb flash drive using Universal USB Installer ...restarted then booted from the usb flash drive... pclinuxos started the booting progress bar then before the end I just got a black screen with no errors ... not sure if this is something related to the Intell HD 3000 or not!!
any help will be appreciated .

May be something to do with the Universal USB Installer, may not. When the boot screen comes up, press the escape key after the message "Press esc key to see boot progress" appears. What is the last thing you see?

Try booting into the video safe mode.
then after it boots you can go into PCC>Hardware>Configure Your Video card and set it .
It will tell you that you need to reboot for the changes to take effect but you should just logout and back in
again .
Now you should be able to install.

I'm having the same problem from a live cd, but on a Fujitsu Siemens Laptop. But when I run the old 2010 Gnome version it works fine?
I've tried all the versions of PCLinuxOS KDE Openbox LXDE XFCE and the all do the same screen goes blank after the live cd has finished booting. Even If i try video safe mode same thing. I've tried installing as well but that gives the same result
I'm pulling my hair out here.
I hope someone can point me in the right direction.
Thank you in advance.
