On Monday I gave it another go and let it install within WINXP, after 20 mins of chugging along it ejected the disk, couldn't find Ubuntu, so gave up, then on Friday it popped up on screen with a choice of selecting which OS to start the computer, clicked on Ubuntu, it then spent 15 mins sorting itself out, all sorts of files running up the screen, when it finished it came up with a box for user name and password.

Never told it I needed either, and no matter what, it won't let me in.

Done a search of files including hidden files, cant find any passwords, I don't use them as only me uses these computers.
