So if he has already been able to run Ubuntu then he should be able to install it, because it requires less to install it than to run it.
When I tried to install ubuntu and a few other distros I had the same problem (Loads two files then black screen), but when I tried the alternate install for xubuntu (Needs less RAM.) it installed fine.
My laptop has shitty RAM.
