Thread: Missing Grub & dual boot menu, Windows wont boot
hello having problem dual boot setup. installed windows xp on 100gb hard drive, there downloaded , burnt ubuntu off install on 200gb hard drive.
little bit struggled install because wouldn't recognize onboard nvidia graphics, ended having alt boot disk , fix technique in link: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1592763.
after bios boot, screen shuts off awhile , takes me directly login screen ubuntu. no grub, no windows boot options, nothing. tried booting windows choosing bios boot menu hang @ prompt , doesn't boot @ all.
tried live cd fix , reinstalled grub nothing changed. think happening boots grub menu doesn't display because of graphical confrontations. hangs 10 seconds, grub default time, , turns monitor on display ubuntu login screen.
know i've seen similar problems none of answers have found worked. wondering if 1 of guru's might able me out?
sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
, set countdown timer greater 0 (5 or 10 seconds)
@ end of bios process, if hold "shift" key down, see grub menu.
