Hmm. Thanks, Cary. Prob is that the earliest we're likely to get a
copy
of XP is next weekend, and I don't want to leave David without for
that
long.
Still, if it comes to it I can back any Ubuntu files up,
repartition and
reformat the HDD, put XP on and then reinstall Ubuntu.
Another issue that's come up with my PC, though, is that my sound card
doesn't seem to be working under Ubuntu. 9.04 recognises my Audigy 4
card; I can see it as an option in the drop-down boxes under System >
Preferences > Sound. Still, I have no system sounds and pressing the
"Test" box comes up empty. And yes, the speakers are on and connected.
Any suggestions, folks?
Thanks in advance,
Rob

Rob,
I'm a level 3 network administrator & I support both Windows &
Linux servers in my job. My preference is to run Windows in a session
within Linux, the Windows actually runs better as it only uses generic
drivers to run I.E. Graphics, network etc I use Virtualbox by SUN it is
in the repo's & is a dream to use. If you want USB support in Windows
you will have to install it from the SUN site but that is easy too.
