Windows has been fixed, sorry about that.
Windows has been fixed, sorry about that.
I installed Ubuntu 14.04 on my school laptop and everything functioned properly until recently. I tried switching to Windows from the boot menu, but everything stopped at a black screen with a blinking command prompt. I didn’t worry much at first. After turning it off and booting back into Ubuntu, it worked just fine. I thought maybe there was an issue with either the Windows installation or the MBR. When I returned home, I used the Windows 8 CD to run bootrec.exe /fixmbr from the terminal, rebooted, and still faced the same problem. I’m looking for advice on what might be causing this. I understand everything should be intact since I was able to access files from Ubuntu and safely retrieve my schoolwork, but I’m stuck with a machine that won’t boot Windows or Ubuntu. It just displays the error message. Perhaps it’s a hardware issue or something more serious—I’d like to try fixing it myself or at least understand what went wrong.
Was das ein Schulcomputer mit allen Softwarepaketen sein, die dich daran hindern, andere Aktivitäten zu machen? Ich hatte nie gedacht, eine Ubuntu-Stickkarte zu verwenden, um solche Programme zu umgehen. UWAH, das hätte meinen Schulbibliothekar noch mehr verärgert als wenn ich Doom 95 von meinem alten MP3-Player spielte.
This should now assist you in supporting others with comparable issues.
