Having been given a computer with Vista on it (the biggest POS ever) I decided to totally make the switch to Ubuntu.
So, I went and installed it (with a partition) and made the big mistake of apparently not remembering the username and password that I set it up with. Uh-Oh.
So I want to put the CD back in to reinstall, but, I can't get the computer to boot from the CD. It goes straight to the page where I choose to boot Ubuntu or Vista.
Can anyone help me here?
On another note, assuming I can reinstall, what do I do to overwrite the old Ubuntu, as I obviously don't want three partitions.
Thanks!
