comment Booting does not work
What did you try to do? Did you try 'up' and 'down' keys or 'enter' and it didn't work?

comment Can I choose the position of a partition while installing Ubuntu as a dual boot with Windows?
Don't know about 13.04, but if all else fails, I guess you can partition your HD using GParted, leave a non-partitioned space where you want 13.04 to be, and then use the free space option on the installer. Unless something is really different with 13.04.

comment C and D 300 Gb drives in one machine How to install on D and do dual boot?
The question is mainly about how to partition and dual-boot, and we are talking about two separate hard drives. In such a case win8 boot system can simply be bypassed by setting the boot-sequence in the BIOS.

comment How to create a bootable USB to install Windows 7 on Linux?
did you try unetbootin with instructions? I know it's a buggy tool but if it worked for someone it may work for you too if you follow in his footsteps. Have good luck anyway, I wish I could help more.

comment Ubuntu 12.04 - not able to hibernate [error creating hibernate image]
I think this isn't the common recommendation today for large amounts of RAM. See link this post about Redhat's swap size recommendation, Ubuntu may have it's own recommendation. But if you have enough disk space and you want to hibernate, swap of 1.5 or 3 times your ram is the best way to get it done, because you can always end up hibernating your system when your ram is overloaded and some swap is used. It is also good to close any unnecessary programs/threads before hibernating.

comment screen DPI - is there and equivalent command/action to Windows 150% Display
BTW, as I edited, it's VB, and AFAIK there is no way to adjust the display to window size. But maybe you can prove me wrong? hopefully?
