No, this is not an install in a separate partition. This is using Wubi. It installs Linux like it were a program inside Windows.

Well, anyway, I have gone through the process of reinstalling each...

Well, I went into Windows 7 and uninstalled Wubi Ubuntu 11.10.

The second Grub menu was deleted leaving me with the first Grub menu that has Windows 7 listed. There should be no Grub at this...

Yes, I understand that Wubi boots with Windows. But, the first menu I get only offers me Windows 7. It does not offer me both Windows 7 and Ubuntu 11.10. I get that after I select Windows 7 in the...

Edit 1: I tried using MBRFix and nothing changed. I still have 2 Grubs.

Edit 2: I found this doing a seach:...

I would recommend you use Wubi to install Ubuntu 10.4. It will be installed like a program in Windows. You can delete it at any time like you would uninstall any other program. Why not use the latest...

OSes. Windows 7 and Ubuntu 11.10

I have used Wubi to install Ubuntu 11.10. I had Ubuntu 10.4 before installing 11.10. It was also installed using Wubi. I started installing Ubuntu 11.10 and it...

Thank you. What is the difference between mounting the .iso and installing it?

):P

I have been away from Ubuntu for several years because I could never get it to work properly with my old computer...video card problem. I didn't want to invest in a nice video card in that old...

I need to bump this message. I have not had anyone offer any suggestions since first posted early this morning.

I was wondering, can I import my Thunderbird accounts from Windows 7 into Ubuntu 10.04's Thunderibird which I installed as a program using WUBI? Thank you, one and all, for your assistance....

Your work is never done. Now get back to work. lol

Thank you OldFred. Your command line statements worked. I am now back to booting directly into Windows 7. I want to thank everyone here that has helped resolve my problem with GRUB.

Thanks wee...

Great! Very understandable, too. Thanks.

Thanks tmx84. I will look at the link. Maybe after I see it I will go with it, if I think it is easier to use. Thanks again.

wee, if you're there, can you answer my questions that I asked oldfred. He did not come back to answer them. Look up about 6 post back.

Hi wee. Glad you're here. I think since you have been on this with me, it will help oldfred. I have a full Windows 7 install disk. I got it today. I think I have referred to it as an oem by mistake....

[QUOTE=oldfred;9198388]I think stmiller posted XP style commands, the one's for Vista and & are slightly different. This is a full set incase you need them, you should only need fixMBR.

Vista or 7...

How do I get to the recovery mode so I can enter the commands?

I have deleted all Ubuntu partitions, but the GRUB is still there. It does not see Ubuntu and I presume therefore it freezes. I can do a soft reboot (ctrl+alt+delete) but still end back at the frozen...

OK! I had already downloaded ndiswrapper-1.54. I will give it a try. Back to rebooting into Ubuntu. I will post the results.

Here is the output from terminal. Notice the Error 2 when I type "make."

Thanks for the two last replies. I will try the first suggestion. If that does not work, then the second.

Well, I am unable to save files from terminal to floppy because Ubuntu will not recognize the floppy drive. I have no CDs I can use. I also cannot get Ubuntu to install ndiswrapper 1.47 which is the...

I don't have as USB stick, however, I can save it to a floppy with the same purpose. I will check to make sure that I am typing the commands correctly. I shall return and post my progress. Thanks for...
