I downloaded Ubuntu (I think version 14 point something, but not sure how to check the version), afterward I checked my download directory and I have an application file and an ISO file. I burned a DVD with the ISO file and loaded Ubuntu from the DVD. During the installation I gave Ubuntu much more space on the drive than required because I didn't know how much to give it- I think I gave it 88GB. I was asked to click on something that would allow my computer to boot from disk and agreed so that I wouldn't have to worry with going into the BIOS. Afterward, I was able to boot Ubuntu and was happy until I discovered that Windows Vista needed repair in order to boot. I did have the screen that asked which operating system to use. I repaired the Windows boot by going to a microsoft site that explained options to type into the command line. After repairing Windows boot, Ubuntu won't boot. Please advise!

Are you sure that you had ubuntu installed and not pressed the ''try ubuntu'' with the disk as an image,right? You could try re-installing ubuntu or, as I suggest you, replace Windows Vista with Windows 7 and move all the files you want to keep in the ubuntu partition, also now that I said that are you sure you created a partition first and not installed ubuntu on the same drive as Vista?
