Comment 19 for bug 8978

ok, now I just fixed this problem 2 days ago, only with an old windows 200
laptop, however it should have the same outcome. Okay, there is this
software called SuperGrub and you ill give you the link, but you need to
download the .iso which I assume you have a .iso burner because u most
likely burned Ubuntu (If not just Google .iso disc image burner and find
one, i use infarecorder) anyway, boot form the cd ( make sure your bios is
set to boot from cd) and then you will come to a screen choose english >
windows > (you might have to hit enter a few times, read the page) then
select boot to windows. Now if this boots windows you're in good shape. So
if it is shutdown and reboot, then this next time instead of selecting boot
windows, choose fix windows, and you can probably figure it out form there I
forgot the menus but eventually u will see a screen that has your HDD
listed. Go to the actual drive, it has something like hd0 or something hit
enter on that and you should be good to go, if yopu have any other questions
I would be happy to help.
