After installing Ubuntu 11.04, Windows Vista has disappeared.
Original title: Windows vista is missing
After installing Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) my other OP system Windows vista has disappeared. I don't get a menu to choose which OP system I want to use. The grub menu 2 does not include an entry for windows. My computer directly boots into Ubuntu. I tried to put the installation disc in the status bar to try to recover the system but nothing works. Can someone help me please? Isetta cordially.
Hi Isetta,
It seems that after installing Ubuntu, grub 2 took control of Boot Manager and changed the boot sequence. To change the startup entries to get Vista, you must contact Ubuntu for assistance on changing the grub boot entries 2.
You can see the following link to get in touch with Ubuntu.
Hope this information is useful.

I tried to install an update in windows vista...
I tried to install an update to windows vista and it is stuck on 3791 # or #3971 which is wdf01000.sys. Then, the computer turns off and now whenever I turn it back on it shows just the screen asking me if I want to start in safe mode. No matter which option I try just brings back me to the screen asking me if I want to start in safe mode. I tried to put in the windows disk and start from it but that just causes a blue screen. What should I do?

Can I install lightroom 5 on Windows vista home 32 bits andhow many computers can I install it on? I'm afraid that if my computer rejects lightroom I will get a second chance.
Bunkieboy,
Lightroom 4 and later will not install or run on the 32-bit editions and 64-bit of Windows XP Edition family or professional
Lightroom 5 et seq. will not install or run on 32-bit editions of Windows 7, Windows 8, 8.1 for Windows and Mac OS 10.6.x
Lightroom CC will not install or run on Mac OS 10.7.x
Please see system requirements for Lightroom for more information.
You can install and activate the perpetual software (purchased) two computers of the same type (mac or pc), as long as you use it one at a time. Lightroom is the exception because it is a cross-platform product, so it can be installed on the pc and mac platforms.
