I had no problems on my Dell Inspiron dual booting, until I upgraded from 9.3 to 10.0 and decided to wipe out Wintendo. On my much newer Gateway touch screen laptop, however, I had several problems. I eventually had to remove Linux altogether and reinstall Wintendo from the image disks. These newer fancy laptops seem to have wierdo hidden partitions and stuff. Mine had three partitions BEFORE I added Linux (which created three more). I ended up giving it away.
