i am a bit of a newbie to ubuntu!
so far i have only really had problems i have overcome most through forum searching but now im really stuck.
i attempted to dual boot windows xp and unbuntu 9.04 putting ubuntu on to an extrenal usb hard disk.
intially i had GRUB error 21 every time i booted and was forced to use my linux live disk to fix the problem.
i ended up installing supergrub which worked and i can now boot into ubuntu without a disk but i still cannot boot into windows.
i get to the grub menu and when i select windows it says GRUB loading stage 2....
and then the boot menu reappears.
any help will be much appreciated!
