New Acer AX1470 - burned a cd & DVD & USB stick
Followed instructions for each to boot into Ubuntu 12.12
Get screen showing "Choose an Operating System: with the choice of Windows8 or Ubuntu
Of course I choose Ubuntu
It sends me to a DOS screen with: "Windows Boot Manager"
Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem: it next gives the standard Windows fix problem with 3 items to follow
FILE: \ubuntu\winboot\wubildr.mbr
STATUS: 0xc000007b
Info: The application or operating system couldn't be loaded because a required file is missing or contains errors
This screen lasts about 20 seconds then shuts down the computer
I have been at this for a while & figure I need help to get into Ubuntu
I have been using Ubuntu for about 5 years & have not experienced a problem in the past - all upgrades new installs have been painless
