Hello guys,
newbie here. Please forgive me as I am by no means an expert in IT, just a regular user so if you could please answer with the least jargon possible, I would be very grateful.
I have trouble with installing the Ubuntu 13.04 desktop version as a dual OS beside my original OS of Windows 8. I am using a brand new Dell Inspiron 7520.
I have downloaded the appropriate 64 bit version of Ubuntu, created a bootable USB and made a disc partition for it to be installed on. I got to the point when I had to restart my system in order to finish up the installation process without any problems, but here is where I got stuck.
No matter what I do, my original OS of Windows 8 keeps starting up - hence can not finish the installation of Ubuntu and unable to run it. I selected in the BIOS menu that I wanted to boot Ubuntu, saved it and exited from the BIOS settings, still nothing - it is completely ignored and Windows 8 just keeps starting up.
What should I do? Your help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
