Public bug reported: This is a Dell XPS M1210 I partitioned my drive for three OS's I installed the OEM windows (Both versions) Media Center and Media Direct They worked fine Then I installed 10.04.1 on a separate partition Now neither version of XP will boot. Not even in safe mode. They just hang and the keyboard does nothing To shut off from trying to boot Media Direct, I had to unplug it and wait for the battery to die because the power button did nothing! Any idea how to fix this?
