Ouch. This seems to be a problem in the drivers for your graphics
adapter:

   ATI AMD M880G with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250 (HP)
   ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470 (HP)    91 C


Can you please choose Troubleshooting Mode in the boot menu and retry?

Tails will search for its boot files on every available removable
medium. It could be fixed but it's not high priority for us at the
moment:
