I installed it last weekend and I'm having major issue's with it (kernal panics and full out freezes) on a system that runs Win XP perfectly fine. I wrote on their forums the problems I've been having and so far I've had no real help. Kinda disheartening, I was hoping to ditch Windows for day to day activities only to find out that my PC for some reason won't work with the OS.

If you are using the live cd to install Ubuntu then it could be your hard drive. The other possibility to consider is a bad cd. I would try to reinstall Ubuntu first and see if that fixes it. If not, then I would run an md5 check on the ISO file you downloaded and see if it is correct.
