):P Hellow!

sorry if this has been answered before, I didnt find anything.


I am trying to format my harddrive and install ubuntu on it, but I cannot mount the hard drive because windows did not shut down correctly, and the force mounting it in the terminal doesn't work because the volume is unnamed.

I cannot boot into windows or install windows.

I think I may have screwed up my drive somehow, but the windows installation's formatting doesn't work.


am I just screwed?

You might try the live gparted cd, or even the version on the live ubuntu disk.

It worked, and I'm a happy camper. Thanks!:p
