GRUB problem

I matched through the installation process to install GRUB loader and I have installed my Yoper on ext3 partition. But after restart, there is no GRUB loader screen and my computer automatically loads Windows.

I checked BIOS booting options trying to solve this problem (for example - i disabled quick boot load for my computer) and i made ext3 partition, installing yoper again. Nothing was helpful.

What should i do, to have posiibility of choosing between loading Windows and Yoper on the start?

You can try the easy way - which is to download the SuperGrub CD and see if you can use that to fix the grub boot issue. If this fails or you want to try fixing the problem manually then boot from a live CD and with root access in a terminal or at command line prompt type
Code:
 fdisk -l
and post output here & we can try and talk you through the process.

Ed: you could also run through the process to install grub and make sure you select install grub to MBR.
