Oh, hah! I just assumed you were trying to dual-boot, and I don't even know  
why.

Just to add to Tom's post, I believe it is recommended that when you update  
Ubuntu to Ubuntu Studio, you should only download the packages:

ubuntustudio-audio
ubuntustudio-audio-plugins
ubuntustudio-graphics
ubuntustudio-video

Of course, you can also choose to only add the software suites that you  
think you'll be using.

I have read on this list that switching the desktop set-up from a regular  
Ubuntu install to the Ubuntu Studio desktop can sometimes cause issues.
