Hello!
Basically I've been using windows for the longest time, and decided to dual boot my ultrabook.
Did installation with USB and it's all good until i've decided to wipe everything out and go for a clean install cos for reason my Windows 7 had issue loading up in dual boot after awhile. Which also affected my Ubuntu.
That's when the issue arised, I tried installing Ubuntu and subsequently many other Linux distros, now my disk is clean, reformatted multiple times, clean installations, after installation, it just doesn't boot and show a blinking underscore on the top left corner of a black screen.
Does anyone has any idea how this can be fixed? Any help at all would be great!
Thanks so much in advanced!
Some information on what i might have done to screw things up.
1. EasyBCD on Windows 7 to adjust the bootloader/Grub Menu(?)
2. Wiping out Ubuntu while the settings of EasyBCD was still in effect
3. I have formatted my disc a few times with.. the Disk Utility Function that return all data to 0
4. I have been adding partition table in gpt/msdos (Trial and error)
5. I have tried installing windows again and it works. At this point i am wondering if theres anything abt my SSD that only works w a NTFS environment.
Basically I just want a clean install of ubuntu to get my PC working again.
Live USB of Ubuntu works like a charm.
