Do you have another LiveCD or LiveDVD?

When you removed LMDE, you also removed the GRUB Menu. Are you Dual Booting Windows?

A little more information, will go a long ways.

Thanks,
Dave

That's strange.... If you can boot a LiveCD, you should bypass the Grub Boot altogether, load straight from the CD.

I'll see what I can turn up.

Check this thread. It's kind of long (3 Pages), but there was a resolution.

Good Luck,
Dave
