In the GRUB 2 menu, I pressed the <e> key to edit, used the arrow keys
to move the cursor to the line that ended with "quiet splash" and
changed it to end with "i915.modeset=0 quiet splash" then pressed the
<Ctrl> + <x> key combination to boot.
To make the changes persistent, I modified /etc/default/grub
then saved and ran the command "sudo update-grub" to implement the changes.
Thanks again,
Chris

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I was finally able to finish startup.
In the GRUB 2 menu, I pressed the <e> key to edit, used the arrow keys
to move the cursor to the line that ended with "quiet splash" and
changed it to end with "i915.modeset=0 quiet splash" then pressed the
<Ctrl> + <x> key combination to boot.
To make the changes persistent, I modified /etc/default/grub
by changing the line:
GRUB_CMDLINE_ LINUX_DEFAULT= "quiet splash"
to:
GRUB_CMDLINE_ LINUX_DEFAULT= "i915.modeset= 0 quiet splash"
then saved and ran the command "sudo update-grub" to implement the changes.
