Hi to anyone reading this, so, a couple of months back a computer of mine and wouldn't boot anymore: windows was corrupted. Since I didn't use the machine much I procrastinated fixing it but there are a lot of photos on that machine that I would like to retrieve, now I know I can just take the harddrive out and connect it to the MOBO of my current computer but I really would rather not have to deal with any hardware.
To access the files on my harddrive I installed Ubuntu on a flashdrive, and tried booting my computer from it, but it's stuck at the Ubuntu splash screen, and by Ubuntu splash screen I mean the Ubuntu logo with a loading bar which appears if you choose the "Try Ubuntu without installing" option after booting from a flashdrive.
I can still move the mouse pointer but the loading bar isn't moving at all.
If anyone has any idea what the problem may be and/or how I could fix it, please tell me.
Thanks in advance!
