Hello All!
I put together a new desktop a few weeks ago, and dual booted windows XP professional and 64 bit ubuntu. All went well, and after a couple days I restarted my computer and attempted to boot to windows and it failed at the splash screen. I did a system restore, and it booted correctly. I've had to do this several times in the past few weeks ( I don't turn my computer off often ) but now the system restore isn't doing the trick AND it won't boot to Ubuntu (also fails at splash screen), which is really weird. Here are the system specs:
MB: Gigabyte GA-MA770-UD3
CPU: AMD Athlon X2 5600
Video Card: XFX GeForce 9400 GT
Memory: G. Skill DDR2-1066 (2GB x 2)
HD1: Western Digital 320GB SATA2
HD2: MAXTOR 80GB IDE Hard drive (I think)
I've tried flashing a new bios, but nothing seems to work this time around. Any suggestions are appreciated!
Thanks!
Nick
