Hello LQ im a complete newbie to linux and i wanted to try it out, ive installed Ubuntu 11.04
it has installed correctly and asked me to reboot my computer so i did but it automatically boots Windows7 and i dont seem to get a choice, i read up on GRUB 1.99 and it says i have to use shift or esc to run it to select Ubuntu, i did this but shift didnt work, tryed esc but i only caught a glimpse of what i think was GRUB before the computer restarted.
if you can help i would apreciate it but no rush
PS ive looked in BIOS and there dosnt seem to be any additional boot options except wether to boot from cd or HDD
