How to dual boot with Windows/Kubuntu already installed

[kenny42]

Hello,
For the last 3 days I have been trying to install kubuntu and setup my laptop so it can dual boot with Windows XP and Kubuntu.

But what I found is Kubuntu loaded okay, but when I try to boot into Windows it booted into The Windows Logo and then back into the boot menu that has Windows and Kubuntu

So my question without formatting the Harddrive, Installing Windows and Kubuntu again.

How do I setup my laptop to dual boot?

PS What I found on some sudo or grub screen was hda2 (Kubuntu) was first and hda1 (windows) was 2nd.

PPS Please Newie replies thanks.

So what you are saying is a person new to Linux cannot asked a booting question in both the 'Help the new guy' and the booting forum?

Double posting just takes up space for an already existing topic. It's not that you really need to do that. Just be a little patient.

I did reply to the original post.
