Hey, I installed 12.04 to update 10.04.
Now, there is no grub2 bootup menu, and startup goes to Linux.
Solution 1 [failed]:
I used TestDisk to rewrite the mbr on windows, which let me boot up the recovery partition - worth noting is that after reinstallation, I still did not have access to the Windows partition - I had to run a full format first, and I got windows back in factory condition. Perfect.
Booted up the LiveCD to reinstall grub2 and allow the dual-boot option - Same problem:
On startup, bios screen comes and goes, then flashing underscore in top left, like normal, then my moniter stops with "frequency out of range" error (meaning the signal physically cannot be shown by the moniter), then linux automatically boots up. That's the new bootup process. Any ideas?
Thanks much in advance community.
