Problems with trial load from Live CD - Cannot Now Boot Vista
I've been having problems with Vista for a while, and as this HP Probook 4710s has been recently acquired from my previous job (company liquidation) it is fairly clear of stuff I wanted on Vista. So, I took the plunge, follwed the Ubuntu download instructions to install a trial version of Ubuntu alongside Vista.
I burned the Live CD, ran the install, selected trial install keeping the option to boot Vista, selected the partition offered (154 GB Vista : 83 GB Ubuntu), but things are not quite as expected.
1. When I first went on Ubuntu, the icon to install fully was not on my desktop as indicated on the Download instructions.
2. When I try to boot Vista at startup I go into the HP Recovery to original factory settings procedure.
I can, however, find all my Vista stuff in a folder called '154 GB Filesystem'.
Have I gone too far with my switch to Ubuntu or am I still only part way. Ideally I would like to have the full 240 GB devoted to one system.
