I want to install Windows 7 over Ubuntu 14.04
This computer originally had Windows Vista installed, then I decided to try Ubuntu (full install deleting Windows) but I need some programs in Windows that won’t work in Ubuntu. So I decided to install VirtualBox (Wine is not an option) and install Windows 7 with an original DVD and it worked fine, the problem is that these programs do not run at the speed I need them, therefore I need to go back to Windows 7. When I try to boot from the DVD drive in the BIOS, it skips the DVD drive and boots directly from the hard drive. I have changed the “booting priority” in the BIOS to only use the DVD drive but it won’t load (this is the same DVD I used to install Windows in VirtualBox). I used gparted from a LiveCD to delete all the partitions and created one in NTFS format but it won’t load from the Windows DVD either. Looks like this computer won’t boot anything else but Linux.
What can I do now?
