windows 7 home premium

intel i5 2500k CPU

ASUSP8Z68-V PRO Motherboard

GeForce GTX 570 GPU

corsair 120Gb SSD (windows 7 os)

WD 1tb HDD

I select the USB drive in the BIOS and boot to it and choose install. i select to manually configure partitions, partition the 200gb of unallocated space on my 1Tb HDD into 16Gb swap file 30Gb / extf4 and 154Gb /home extf4. I make sure that the boot loader is installed to corsair 120Gb SSD (where the windows boot is) and installation goes smoothly.

When i reboot after install it runs through bios strait into windows. I have tried upwards of a dozen times and i have also tried with linuxmint. I have also redownloaded the ISO and used two different programs to create the live usb.

the installation seems to go well as i can see the partitions i have created in the windows device manager after install http://imgur.com/Wp0V1

I currently run lubuntu on my laptop but it is not a dual boot. i'm assuming this is a boot loader issue and i am assuming that inside those partitioned files in my screenshot there is a working OS of ubuntu 12.04 i just have no way of getting to it.
