Hello,
Trying to get away from Microsoft so I downloaded Ubuntu to a USB stick. The install seemed to go fine but when I restarted my computer (Acer Aspire ES1) I get a "Reset System" message in the upper left corner, and then it tries to reload again. This goes on indefinitely until I hit F12 and boot once again from the stick. Besides being an inconvenience to carry the USB everywhere I go, it also re-installs Ubuntu and resets all my previous settings.
I thought it might have something to do with the files I downloaded, but they were verified, and the exact same thing happened when I tried to install Mint.
Essentially, I want to boot from my HD. Thanks in advance. Rick B.
