Hello again, I installed Linux mint cinnamon on a flash drive and it booted fine but froze as soon as I tried to click on a menu item. I tried an earlier edition too (forgot what it was called now) but that didn't even load and all I got was a screen full of code. Now that I know how to boot from a USB /-) I used rufus to create a bootable USB repair disk. The repair options loaded but when I went in to startup repair, there was no OS listed. I opened the command prompt option and followed an online tutorial and used some bootrec.exe tools including scanos which told me that it could not find an OS installed. Is there a way to get it to recognise the Win7 that's on there or might this mean that it's gone for good?
