hello,
I have been trying things from all over the place and have come up empty as far as a solution that works.. plenty of answers just not the right ones for me. anyway here we go with the problem
I have vista 32 installed on the first HD and ubuntu installed on the second both are working and i CAN log into them but only if i have a bootable cd in the cd drive that gives you the "press any key to boot from cd" message if i get this and wait through the message it goes to grub no problems and works fine. Now if i try to let it boot normaly it will get to grub and give me the following
Grub loading stage1.5
Grub loading, please wait
error 17
and at this point a reboot is your only choice.
I have yanked linux and redone my mbr so that windows booted properly again and reformated reinstalled and tried a multitude of other things that have been posted to no avail.
any suggestions? thanks in advance
Dave
