    Hi,

    I've Dell Studio 1537. I tried installing Ubuntu on dual boot mode but after installing it I lost my Windows partition. I want to start over again by installing Windows and then Linux. I've Media Direct 4 CD but it is not bootable. How do I format the disk and install Media Direct, Windows and Ubuntu?

    Thanks,
    Babu
