[tlug] problem with MBR

[Deepika Ghuriani <deepika.ghuriani@example.com>]

Hello People ,

 

Hope you all are doing great !

 

 

[ I had initally made my system dual boot, with Ubuntu 9.10 and windows Vista, but coz of some major issues(may be I did some mistake in the partitioning ) I could never use windows. When I tried booting through Windows my system started system recovery after which i couldnt follow coz  instructions were in japanese. It finally took away the grub and took me to-  grub rescue >  , 

I tried recovering MBR but nothing worked.    ]

 

 

Now I have freshly installed Windows Vista on my machine. But still the problem exists.

 

Problem : MBR is misplaced (thats what it seems like)

 

When I start my system (when booting through hard disk) it takes me to ...

grub rescue >

 

But when using a boot CD (using Parted magic CD ) can boot the system  .

 

I would like to make my system dual boot coz my requirements.

 

Can anybody help me how to do it.

->Get the MBR fixed and make the system dual boot.

 

System specs :

 

PROCESSOR: Core i5

RAM: 4 gb

HDD: 500gb

 

Thanks !
