Anyone here knows their way around a failed boot? I installed Ubuntu

If anyone has a bit of spare time please have a look at

help is most appreciated.
Hi Patrik,
I'm a bit of a novice at the whole UEFI boot thing myself but I have
played a little bit and my first thought is that you may have installed
Ubuntu GNOME in legacy mode but Windows may have been installed in UEFI
mode.
Your best bet would be to start a new thread at this section of Ubuntu
Forums:
http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=333
Be sure to include a boot info summary produced by Boot Repair:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
But DO NOT RUN THE RECOMMENDED REPAIR until someone has looked at that
boot info summary because sometimes it can make matters worse - like if
the installation process tried to convert a GPT partition table to MSDOS.
Then reply back here with a link to that forum thread and I'll have a
look, but if you're really lucky forum moderator and user oldfred will
have a look. He's helped me a lot, oldfred is a true guru when it comes
to UEFI boot and installation problems.
