Furah Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 This morning I downloaded an Ubuntu .iso file (ver 8.4) from the Ubuntu site, and after burning it to a CD and booting the computer from a CD I have come across a problem, it won't let me run Ubuntu, install, update drivers or check to make sure the CD is fine. Basically all I can do is press the F* buttons and select boot from hard drive (aka run Vista) is there a way to fix this without having to re-download the whole file again :roll: Steam | PM me for BBM PIN Nine naked men is a technological achievement.

sloter Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Are you sure you burned the cd right? Also do you have your BIOS set to boot from the CD drive first? If not set it too or jsut go to the boot menu and boot from the cd drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furah Posted August 27, 2008 Author Share Posted August 27, 2008 haha nice picture :D when my computer starts I press F12 and select boot from CD/DVD drive and I come up with the Ubuntu logo and 5 options Try, Install, Check, Update Drivers and Boot from hard drive (boot Windows Vista) but nothing happens unless I slect boot from hard drive or pressing F1-F6 which either has options that don't help, or ones I don't know anything about Steam | PM me for BBM PIN Nine naked men is a technological achievement.
