Trying to install Ubuntu 12.04 alongside windows 7 home. However when I get the installation option it says that there are already multiple os installed and it dosn't give *me the option to install Ubuntu alongside windows.*

The problem is that I have no other OS installed.

No my question hasnt been answered at Installing Ubuntu with Windows, which is left and right when allocating space? 5 answers

My question has nothing to do with which is left and right when allocating space?

Please read question before posting an unrelated answer

I fixed my problem. I deleted and merged all partitions. This has fixed the problem I now have the option to install Ubuntu alongside windows 7.

The extra partitions I had were Recovery(D:) "not user about the letters HP_Tools(F:)

I hope this can help anyone who is/was having similar problem

During installation process, there is a screen with proposal of various options (i.e.: Replace windows, install alongside windows, etc.).

One of those options is "Something else" (literally), which in further steps, allows you to create your own partition setup.
