Windows 7 Windows 7 DVD cannot repair boot loader

[msnews]

Hi,

I installed ubuntu 9 and then removed. however grub loader still appearred during booting up. and then fail to boot of course. I use windows 7 DVD to repair the startup problem. But it says no problem found. Finally I have to use XP CD to boot to recovery console and type "fixmbr" to solve the problem.

So, is there anyway to use windows 7 DVD to do same way as XP CD did?

To address the issue you described with the GRUB loader persisting after removing Ubuntu and failing to boot properly, you can indeed use the Windows 7 DVD to repair the boot sector in a similar way to how you used the XP CD to fix the MBR (Master Boot Record). Here's how you can proceed using the Windows 7 DVD to repair the booting issue: 1. Boot from Windows 7 DVD: - Insert your Windows 7 DVD into the optical drive of your computer. - Restart your computer and boot from the Windows 7 DVD. You may need to change the boot order in the BIOS settings to boot from the DVD. 2. Access the System Recovery Options: - When you see the "Press any key to boot from CD or DVD" message, press any key to start the Windows 7 installation. - Select your language preferences and click "Next." - Click on "Repair your computer" at the bottom left corner. 3. Start Command Prompt: - In the System Recovery Options, select the Windows installation you want to repair (typically it will be the only one listed unless you have multiple installations). - Click on "Command Prompt." 4. Use bootrec Command: - In the Command Prompt window, type the following command:

 bootrec /fixmbr

- Press Enter to run the command. This will repair the Master Boot Record (MBR) on your boot drive. 5. Exit Recovery Console and Restart: - After the command completes successfully, type exit and press Enter to exit the Command Prompt. - Click on "Restart" to reboot your system. By following these steps, you should be able to repair the boot sector using the Windows 7 DVD in a way similar to how you used the XP CD with the fixmbr command. This should fix the booting issue caused by the remnants of the GRUB loader from the previous Ubuntu installation.
