delete system 32, should fix the problem huehuehuehue.

But in all seriousness, have you tried turning it off and on again? huehuehuehue.

But in all seriousness, have you tried reinstalling Windows 8 again from the disk?

You probably didn't partition your drive right and either:

(1) Installed over Windows
(2) Didn't leave enough space on the Windows partition and so it can't run

Or you don't know what you're doing and you didn't even partition the drive. Find your Windows disk, install Windows again over Linux, don't try again.

Some options here:

1) It could just be the bootloader (the program that loads the operating system for you) - look up 'repairing grub' (grub is probably the bootloader that is installed)

2) Attempt a repair of Windows 8 - put in the installation disc and use the repair function (don't do a full installation or change partitions, that will wipe your data)

3) Boot into your Linux distribution, back up all your data and start again with Windows 8 first.

It'd be useful to know your distribution (Ubuntu?) and how you installed it (Wubi? Partition shrink and full install?) and I also recommend asking on a proper tech support site.

And, you know, just about every web server you access.

Ok, three things:

1. It's impossible for a human being to put his/her head in their own arse. If it where possible, we would either be missing most of our ribs or have a vertebra made out of elastic bands (or both).

2. I have tried Linux on virtual box and I really don't like the system but that could be due to the fact I grew up on Windows.

3. I honestly did not know that most websites are hosted by a Linux based system

If you didn't like Linux on a virtual box, why the hell would you install it on your desktop computer?

Where did you get that message from? I don't see where I wrote that.

FYI: I don't have a desktop computer, I have a laptop. The way you said desktop computer makes you sound kind of snubby and like a know it all. No offence.
