Tosiba Satellite laptop freezes with 10.4

[Bill Weder]

When I attempt to upgrade from 9.10 to 10.4, the computer freezes when booting. The screen is blanked out
When I attempt to run an install from an ISO of 10.4, the same thing happens during the boot phase.
The laptop is fairly old. Is this a problem with memory size?

similar to the problem on question #116231
