Ok I downloaded ubuntu 7.04 fiesty fawn and made a bootable CD and installed ubuntu.I got several problems:
(1.)I cannot boot up my system without the ubuntu CD in my drive>when I try to boot up without cd the following shows up:
To boot up i have to boot from the ubuntu CD and then select 'Boot from hard disk'.
(2.)I had windows installed on another partition so I thought the before installation that the boot loader will give option to select between the two OS but it is happening linux is started.IS there any way I can boot up both the OS depending upon my need.Please note after hitting Esc the grub only shows three options one is normal one is safe mode(kind of) third one is something weird(lols)
(3.)This is my biggest worry.Ubuntu did not recognise my onboard graphics (GMA300) but the sound is working correctly.So the display is fuzzy and the desktop effects are not smooth.The screen is about 1 inch all black on right side.
(4.)I cant play movie files(.avi) and mp3s???Its asking for codecs.
MY SPECS.
intel C2D PROCESSOR E6300
INTEL 946GZ MOTHERBOARD WITH 128MB GM1300 ONBOARD GRAPHICS
