*bump*

now i am confused...
Sorry I wasn't of any help
Someone else will come to your rescue don't worry

One last comment: try 'sudo fdisk-l' to see a list of your partitions

When it boots Ubuntu, It says Press "ESC" to enter menu.....
Press ESC!!!
Now use your arrow keys to select Vista at the bottom.
When in Vista go to the Start menu, select the search box and type msconfig. Press enter
Select boot and from the menu select Vista. Reboot (like normal again!)
Otherwise you need to go to BIOS and select the IDE - or SATA as your first boot device and your External last.


Happy Ubuntu!

grub in wubi starts AFTER the windows bootloader, unless you installed the full version of Ubuntu from CD (not wubi). You might want to run chkdsk /r from windows CD or another rescue CD.

Joordee, I'm back!

I must say I am really disappointed by your level of asking
Please...if you know you need help. Try and be as descriptive as possible to ease the process.
As you can see most of the answers you got were merely guesses because none of us knew exactly what you were asking

The bottom line is...the short sentences you write can mean more.
I hope you find the solution to your problem
Cheers!
