    How to boot into windows?

    Vista and Ubuntu 12.04

    Although I installed 12.04 about 2 years ago, until now I have not had a need to boot into windows... well, I need to and there is no option at startup to boot into windows, it automatically boots into Ubuntu. Help please.

    Post link to BootInfo report.
    Boot Repair -Also handles LVM, GPT, separate /boot and UEFI dual boot.:
    https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair

    Boot-Repair can only fix a few minor issues in Windows. Do you have a Windows repairCD or flash drive?

    I do not have a Windows repairCD or flash drive. When I purchased this computer many years ago, it did not come with one.

    I have followed the instructions via 'help.ubuntu.../Boot-Repair' in Terminal. I am going to restart my puter to see if it worked.

    Post link here. I have not even seen Yann in forums for ages, I think he is overloaded.

    Those of us in the Forum should be able to help.
