[ubuntu-studio-users] fix ubuntu studio install

[BabsKy]

Thanks George, unfortunately it didn’t work for me. I had the same thought myself as I have also used Boot Repair successfully before. I burnt it onto a disk then booted from that disk. It all seemed to be going well until it suddenly said repair cancelled (can’t remember the actual wording). I tried a couple of times but no go. 
I think it’s going to have to be a complete reinstall of both Windows and Ubuntu Studio unfortunately, which I was trying to avoid but if I can’t fix US I have no other option.

You have to run it from a CD or DVD I cant remember which and then choose Boot from disk when booting your laptop. The Boot repair tool doesn't always work for me when installed either but you have to boot from the Boot Repair tool on the CD/DVD disk. This has worked for me many times I love the boot repair tool it is the best for sure. Have a great day good luck and let us all know if that helps and donate to the Boot Repair tool if pos. Thanks

>> I made the mistake of upgrading Ubuntu Studio on my dual boot. The first problem was no grub so I enabled OS prober and updated the grub but it still didn't work. Still no grub and boots straight into Ubuntu Studio. I can see Windows on the HD, but I just can't boot into it. I also can't do any updates or install anything (tried installing boot-repair). It gets so far then says something about too many errors and nothing is installed/updated. I've created a bootable USB but my laptop will only boot from the USB if in UEFI mode, but then, of course, it doesn't recognise either OS on the HD. The only blank discs I have are too small for Ubuntu Studio. I ordered some larger capacity discs but, long story short, I'm not getting them but I am getting a refund. I've tried starting US in recovery mode but I'm guessing it's not broken enough? I have the option of trying to repair the Windows MBR and possibly wiping the US partition but ideally I'd like to keep both.
