Description MATT 2013-12-05 13:07:59 UTC 
Description of problem:
I have a Toshiba Satellite P75-A7200 laptop. It has an option in the Bios to use UEFI or CSM. When I use UEFI which I would prefer to since I also have Windows 8 on my computer it has trouble. I seem to have an unrecognized video card. I am never able to make it to this screen. 

http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/19/html/Installation_Guide/images/boot/boot_screen.png

Since I can't get to that screen I am not able to select the troubleshooting option and then the Install Fedora in basic graphics mode. 

http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/19/html/Installation_Guide/ch-Boot-x86.html

If I switch CSM in my bios I am able to select the troubleshooting option and then the Install Fedora in basic graphics mode.

Comment 2 David Shea 2014-03-13 21:52:12 UTC 
Does this problem still occur with Fedora 20? Which live media are you using? Is there anything displayed at all?
Comment 3 MATT 2016-11-09 14:03:30 UTC 
I do not have this computer anymore. Is there a way I can stop receiving notifications for this?
