When I installed ubuntu on this dell dimension 350 I cannot run the operating system from the hard drive, I can only run from the live CD, how do I get the software to run from the harddrive?

Do you get any error message when booting from the harddisk?

It's necessary to know what happens when you try to run it without the cd. Windows boots? Grub error 21 appears? Does the option "boot from first hard disk" of the cd work?
