Help! Problem Installing Linux by srrrr(op): 4:06pm On Mar 13, 2018
I tried installing Ubuntu on my system. I gave the Ubuntu 250gb space and installed it, Now my windows is nowhere to be found.
I can't see the remaining 500gb space. The only thing working is Ubuntu and dual booting will still lead to Ubuntu.
Pls this is my first system, I have files in the windows and I don't know where they are.
I tried factory reset through alt + f10 and power button, but it only factory reset my Ubuntu.
My system is acer travelmate 7750

I guess your laptop came with Windows and you partitioned and assigned 250GB to Ubuntu? How did you achieve this?
