I am trying to boot an old HP

There were a few other lines

After fighting with this all week I found a bios update
http://www.driversguru.com/driverdetail/2154857-A8AE-LE+Motherboard+BIOS+Update
after I installed the update the computer would boot from
the 14.04 Live CD and it installed without a problem. It
also will now boot from the live USB. Hopefully this will
help if anyone else is trying to put their old xp computer
to better use.
