Ok after being on strictly Ubuntu for 5 months I realized that I really needed to have a Windows partition for quite a few things still. I had attempted numerous times to get things that were Windows based running under Wine with no avail.

I installed PlayOnLinux to play Runes of Magic on my machine and after a LONG time downloading the game it would constantly update the game and never play. I felt I was stuck in Groundhog Day with this.

So I grabbed my Windows CD and booted off it. Deleted all my partitions and created new partitions – The larger partition for Windows and the smaller for Linux (around 50GB for Linux is enough for me).  I formatted the larger partition and installed Windows.  Booted up fine and I did all my installs of old software I used on there and things I needed to use.  And of course a couple of games (Runes of Magic was not installed.. Yet.)

Back to square one with the Ubuntu install, however. Every thing works under the dual boot. GRUB comes up for the choice of Ubuntu or Windows.  Now to figure out if I can get BURG to work right. *sigh*
