Thank you so much. I followed the instructions on there through Windows and was able to fix everything. It is all good now. Thanks for the help!!!

Hello. I'm afraid that I messed up. I installed Ubuntu 12.10 the other day along side Windows 7. All went well there and I was able to pick either Ubuntu or Win7 when the computer booted up.
Well,...

Bingo! That was it. Thank you so very much. It seems to be downloading fine now.

Hello all:

Thanks. Just got done downloading the Ubuntu 11.10. Am testing it now. Thanks for all your help. Am going to have to dual boot the computer as I only have one hard drive on the laptop.

Thank you. I'm trying it out now.

Hello all:
I have been enjoying the reviews of 11.10 and want to get back into the Ubuntu ballgame after some time away. I now have a Toshiba Satellite C655 with Intel Core i3 64 bit processor. I've...

Funny enough, I've had some real problems. I downloaded the Linux Preview (and paid for a Premium account--I have spotty internet access and wanted to be able to load up when I'm at a wireless...

I'm having the same problem, but I don't get any response. I did install a new hard drive, but it's the same kind of computer--HP Mini 110. It will work once after install but then it won't work;...

I, too, have been having the same problems. I have looked under Gwibber to try to switch something off to eliminate the configuration window from popping up. And mine started with nothing new...

Hello all. This is my third flirtation with Ubuntu; I've left every other time because of its inability to run certain programs. Well, I'd heard that Ubuntu was better about running programs, so I...

Hi:
I'm trying to burn a download to CD using GnomeBaker CD burner. I'm using UNE 10.04, a Targus ADV01US usb-connected with CD-RW in it. The computer recognizes the CD player but refuses to...

I *finally* completed the switch last week. So far, so good. I don't know how long this will last, but I'm so fed up with Microsoft and Apple. I'm using Ubuntu Netbook Edition 10.04. All good so far.

I'm dealing with the same problem. So it's not like no one is having a problem. Four days of working on this makes you want to curse a bit.

Just wondering how I update my BIOS. I sound like a royal idiot; I'm just a n00b.

No joy: can't find the hard disk. Have trolled the threads on here and have seen some things to try, but can't get to them. I tried something else with xserver and that didn't work. About to toss the...

Hey all:
Am trying the alternate text-based installer and that's working great-- until it comes to detect disk, and then it won't recognize my hard drive. I've slept since I started working on this...

Have an Averatec 3250 with AMD (yes it's old). I've tried all sorts of different installs to install Ubuntu on the computer with no joy. Have done installs previously on other computers and have...

I checked the disk and the download was fine. How do I get the alternate cd?

Hello all:
I tend to need this forum more than I can help. Am installing latest version of Ubuntu (8.04) and keep getting this "To run a command as administrator..." and it seems like some sort of...
