  1. Black screen in Windows 10 dual booted with Ubuntu


    My computer (dell inspiron) is dual booted, with windows 10 and ubuntu. Normally, when I power my system on, the grub menu comes up and I select windows from it. The first option in the menu is ubuntu, which is selected automatically if I don't select anything. Since yesterday, everytime I power my system on I see a black screen, no dell logo, no grub menu, and after a while ubuntu turns on. Ubuntu works without any errors.

    If I change the grub menu configuration such that Windows will boot if I don't select anything, I see a black screen indefinitely. I tried changing the order in the grub menu to 1. Windows 2. Ubuntu; and upon startup pressed Down key and Enter, this also led me into Ubuntu. It is almost as if the grub menu is there but it isn't being displayed. Basically, booting into Windows shows a black screen with no cursor, and booting into Ubuntu (if I can find my way through the invisible grub menu upon startup) works normally.

    Is there any way to correct this without wiping and reinstalling everything? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    :)

    dual boot xp and ubuntu

    I had that problem a few months ago, but dual-booting is really easy. I am currently dual-booting Vista and Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron. Use this website here for a guide to dual-booting XP and Ubuntu: APC's February 2019 issue is out now! | TechRadar (I actually did not use this guide at all, but I did pretty much the same thing!)

    If you are unable to get your boot working with this guide, reply to this message, and I will write out a step-by-step guide, but it will involve you already having a partition set out for XP (as in you are not already using your entire hard drive space for XP alone.) Even though I write the guide with experience from Vista, it will work with XP
