I f the helper need to take over my computer to resolve, I'm happy with that.<br>
<br>
The update14.04-16-04, was writing updated files when it stopped, a restart just defaults to login and login to the terminal command prompt. The help option delivers a screen full, I do not know if one of the options will help.<br>
<br>
64bit dual boot with MS Windows 7. I do have a 14.10 32bit disc if that might help but am worried about loosing things.<br>
<br>
Any offers of help appreciated. Tks, Michael<span class="gmail-HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
