Question [Fixed] UBUNTU - Boot Problems

I have Windows XP installed and recently installed Ubuntu.

I have acronis OS selector installed.

When i boot up my PC the only OS that shows is XP. There is no sign of UBUNTU.

So I choose the 'Detect OS Wizard'.

This searches the UBUNTU partitions but returns nothing.

There seems to be no way of booting from UBUNTU.

I have already tried installing it again and again, with no success.

Is there anything left to do.

Thanks in advance.
