________________________________________


I'm using Windows 7 for the first part of the video. But I switched to Windows XP. Cause Windows 7's boot menu is different from Vista and XP. So Ubuntu doesn't work with Windows 7. That's why I switched to Windows XP. But ubuntu will work dual booted with Win7. When you have WinXP installed first (Or Vista). Than install Win7. Than I Installed Ubuntu on Windows 7. And it works fine. But it's a pain doing that. WinsXP and than Win7 (Sorta). Whatever you do, don't install winxp over win7.

@fzkn4u Yes, you can. Backup your data on your thumbdrive though. Have you seen the USB method on the official website?

hey When I finished downloading Ubuntu 9.10 I just click the download file and the installer run and I did not download deamion tools

[MicroHelper]

Probably cause you got a automatic program you have or something .

Or Linux changed the ISO to a setup File .well... if it worked for you differently . Good for you =D

Confused!! ive got it running but how do you access you other os files???

[MicroHelper]

Yeah about that.... lol you can't. But you can.

It's easy . Make a partitoin and make it 16024 GB's in Computer Management. And just install it inside windows in that partition .
