I wonder where I've gone wrong. I installed Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on a disk that already had Windows(64bit).
The PC still boots into Windows without offering me the chance to choose Windows or Ubuntu.
Has anyone else done this -- and is there a solution for someone rather unfamiliar with the technical aspects of Ubuntu?
Thanks

Did you do a Wubi install, or a "normal" one? You can try the Boot Repair program: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair

Thank you, but this did not work as the system wouldn't boot from the disk

Did you change the BIOS setting to boot from the CD/USB?
