Alright so I have a dell Inspiron-1720 with vista and Ubuntu on it, although the problem is I was on Vista for a bit playing Counter Strike Source
and then out of nowhere it crashed and then vista went to go shutdown and after about a minute of it saying it was shutting down it then started saying
it was completing a windows update step 3 of 3 or something, so I let it do its thing and shutdown. I still wanted to play Counter Strike
though so I turned on the computer to be welcomed by NOTHING it was black no curser, no option to enter the bios, although the system was on
so I pressed all the F1-F12 keys and nothing happened but enter did, (Note I have grub installed so I can choose more easily what OS I want to boot from)
when I pressed it ubuntu started loading up although something was wrong VERY wrong, the brightness was very dim. After about two hours of constant
Google searches and installing/reinstalling drivers I still couldn't find anything, any suggestions would be appreciated.
Also sorry if my format or whatever sucks this is my first time using UbuntuForums ( I made this account just for this problem)
