Hello, this is urgent, so please respond quickly. I have a computer with Windows XP and WUBI Ubuntu, and my dad installed Windows 7 BETA, so the boot settings are screwed up. I think Wubi screwed up the boot settings for Windows XP so whenever I try to boot up on Windows XP the monitor is just a black screen when I chose Windows XP. So when I boot on Windows XP, I can pick either Windows XP or Ubuntu. How can I get the Boot settings back to normal?????? Please answer, this is URGENT. Any help appreciated.
Welcome to HWF Are you able to boot into Ubuntu? If so, do the following: 1. Browse with a text editor to the file /boot/grub/menu.lst. Copy and paste the contents of that file here (put between [ code ] [ / code ] tags). 2. Open GParted (install with Synaptic Package Manager if required). Write down the partition information of the Windows XP partition here. [ot]Moved to 'Linux and Other OSes'[/ot]
you mean [noparse] Code: <text> [/noparse] yes - if you want to fix Ubuntu / XP bootloader & include 7 with Ubuntu or which OS do you want to use the bootloader of ? Edit: or boot Ubuntu & run Code: grub-update to quickly fix the problem automatically Edit: this will actually scan your HDD for all OSs & recreate /boot/grub/menu.lst
