Thread: Win 7 not booting after Ubuntu 10.04 LTS install


hello,

yesterday, i've tried install ubuntu 10.04 lts on system. i've installed however, seems had made windows 7 unable start up. when select windows 7 grub menu, starts show logo halfway before displays full logo, screen flickers. shows information @ top of screen in white text moves much able read. then, computer starts again , reaches grub menu.

should tell how went installing ubuntu. in windows, had used disk manager comes windows shrink down main partition make room ubuntu. had created 32gb (i believe right measurement) of unallocated free space. there other partitions, 1 named system , other ~14gb hp system restore partition or of nature. had restarted computer , inserted flash drive it, held live version of ubuntu 10.04 lts. continued on installing ubuntu, though, when got select/resize partitions, no option had come asking me if wanted install ubuntu alongside windows. option manually or wipe hard drive. thought weird last time installed ubuntu on friend's system, former option had came up. proceeded anyways, selecting manually select/resize partitions , whatnot. when came screen, free space bigger had made it, 48gb if can remember correctly. also, think hp partition wasn't there, though i'm not sure. installed ubuntu freespace , left 4gb swap. afterwards, decided boot windows , here are.

i've ran "boot script" or whatever it's called, here results:

code:
