Question #76774 on Ubuntu changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/76774

RayArdia gave more information on the question:
I have an .iso CD of Jaunty. I did try to use Jaunty earlier but ran
into problems in trying to install it alongside Vista, so decided to
revert to Hardy as I've been using it on my PC for a long time. Perhaps
you may suggest using that, and starting again?

I suspect that it is the remnants of Vista that are causing all the
problems. I really do wish I'd bought a laptop preloaded with Ubuntu,
for I only really need XP to run the one Windows program  that I still
use; it is Cadvance, an old CAD program. QCad appears to do everything
(and more) that Cadvance did but I found  that in my seventies the
learning curve was a bit steep to change from Cadvance to QCad. Also
have quite a library of Joinery etc drawings in Cadvance format.

Maybe if I could wipe the disk of everything pertaining to Vista, leaving only the Acer partition and its drivers ...but how?
