Hello Friends,
This is my first post on Ubuntu Forums. I'm trying to install Ubuntu 14.04 on my laptop but i'm unable to install it properly, I do slect Different path for GRUB installation but nothing comes up not BIOS recognizes my Ubuntu Installation nor Windows 7.
Secondly, I see that I get an option for installation alongside on 32 bit ver of ubuntu but I don't on 64 bit. I do have a 64 Bit machine and Windows never has a problem. It is obvius that i wish to have a 64 bit of Ubuntu alongside but some how I'm unable to do it.
I have 4GB ram and no data on HDD so I'm fine with Formatting HDD but i need a permanent solution as for every 6 months i dont wish to have this issue.
(I'm not very comfortable in re installing Win 7 again and again bi-monthly as my sister also uses for her school work. Additionally working for 15 hours a day for 6 days leaves me little time for this hassle).
Please provide me installation steps in order to install and dual boot win 7 & 14.04 with out and problems.
An additional info on Z570's BIOS will be helpful as i still don't know if i have a UEFI Bios (But it's the latest ver. flashed firmware)
Thanks & Regards.
