Pressing F8 or F11 or F12 or.. you get the idea (usually at the same point where you would press Delete to enter the BIOS setup) will get you a boot menu. Much easier than changing the boot order each time.

I think when you install you will need to install Grub to the drive with Windows on it, so that it recognises the Windows installation and adds it to the boot list.

This free utility makes adding other os's (including Linux) to Windows 7 Boot Manager fairly easy. Then when you are booting you will see Windows Boot Manager with the choice to boot into Win7 or Ubuntu. Rod J (451)
