Can he boot up via the CLI. If so, run the following commands
- Code: Select all
sudo /etc/init.d/networking start
sudo apt-get -f install
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo update-grub
A little help would be useful though, as I don't know the issue but the above may help.
When booting up hit the escape key and check for error details...
Also check the /var/logs file for more information regarding certain erros.
If that doesn't help, come back with some more details, and I will try and help you.
Hope this helps,

Ubuntu's docs and forums are a much better place to ask these questions.

They may be able to help you further but it's best if you've shown that you've tried other sources.
