I am having issues with my dual boot. Ubuntu freezes on the loading screen with the dots (before it asks you to log in).

I dont know how to remove resolve this. I have booted in safe mode and can view my files.

Any ideas? I would really appreciate it!

There are many reasons and solutions for this.

1) Removing quiet splash

When you are on the grub menu (the menu which you select what OS to boot), make sure that your selection is on "Ubuntu" and press E. You'll see a line like this one:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"

And remove "quiet splash". To save grub like this, press F10.

2) nomodeset

If the first one doesn't work, after deleting "quiet splash", add "nomodeset" in their place. If this works, it also means that you probably have nvidia GPU or Dual GPU.
