      Hello – All,
      Solved the problem!! Virtual Box!! Works flawlessly !! Now I have all my windows things, on the same drive as Ubuntu….Hate dual booting, anyway…I tried VB on earlier versions, didn’t work…The latest version 4.00??? works like a charm!!
      The best way to try other OS’s and NOT corrupt windows. Can get my pass words stored in roboform on win 7 and import them into last pass ( new p.w. mgr for xmarks ) everything simply WORKS!! A happy win7 and Ubuntu camper!
      Thanks / John in Dallas

      Not to burst your bubble, but VBox doesn’t let the Guest OS access your hardware directly. My PC has a Nvidia video card, but my Guest OS ( Ubuntu ), wasn’t displaying at full res. Normally I’d just update the video driver. Not with VBox. It emulates something very generic.
