GRUB stage 1.5 error 17
Ok, so I'm a complete novice with linux, so I figured I'd try it out. I get Ubuntu, use it for a while, get tired of it, so I reformat the partitions that I used to install Ubuntu on. My partition layout is like so:
/dev/sda1 - fat32 - Windows recovery - 4GB
/dev/sda2 - ntfs - Windows XP Media Center install - 100GB
/dev/sda3 - extended
/dev/sda5 - ntfs - Stuff - 32GB
/dev/sda4 - fat32 - more stuff - 50GB
sda3 & sda5 were my previous linux install.
Now, when I turn on my computer, I get Grub loading stage1.5 error 17. .
I do not have access to an XP install disk to go to recovery and type fixmbr. This is a pretty big problem and I really need help with it. Thanks
