I have a Lenovo IdeaPad Y510p with Windows 8.1 Enterprise. I attempted to install Ubuntu 12.04 from a bootable USB and once the installation was complete and I rebooted, I was shown the black terminal screen and could not access the desktop. Startx does not work and every time I start the laptop, it boots straight to Linux. I can't access Windows at all. How do I remove Ubuntu and boot Windows again? The screen I see when I log on is this. https://www.dropbox.com/s/wpdfhk54va6ea9w/20140223_113205.jpg

- Create a bootable CD/DVD or pendrive with Windows 8.1 on it.
- Boot the CD/DVD/Pendrive and click on install and chose advance install option.
- Delete the partition containing Ubuntu
- Boot the CD/DVD/Pendrive again and click on repair your Computer.
- Go to the command prompt and type this : bootrec.exe/fixmbr
- Shutdown your Computer and remove the installation media and boot again.
I hope this will do.

I edited the post to show you what the startup screen looks like. How do I proceed from there? – Blink 508 Feb 23 '14 at 10:38
