well grub is the linux bootloader
It is not the Microsoft bootloader you did make a "rescue " disk of windows 7 ( like you were instructed to on the very first boot of windows7 or do you have a real Windows 7 install dvd reboot with the rescue dvd you made ( or the install dvd ) and fix the mbr http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927392 --- install dvd --- see this page http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials...ot-record.html |
I have a genuine windows but.not.the dvd or disc or anything of that sort. I heard u can fix this whole problem with using an ubuntu live disc but I am unsure. Need to find a way to get to the microsoft boot. Thank you john W althow =) but I do not have any cd/dvd of any sort =(

you can try to reinstall grub
but there is no guarantee it will work you have a ubuntu disk see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351 seeing as you deleted the ubuntu partition your best bet is to call Microsoft on the phone and have them mail you a install dvd "windows 7 service pack 1 " |
