Windows 7 won't boot after Ubuntu Linux Install

Windows 7 likes to be the main OS on a dual boot system. Your boot manager is the problem. Either use the Windows CD or your Ubuntu CD to go and rebuild your boot manager.

Good luck.

    I installed Ubuntu on a free partion on a computer which had Windows 7 installed first, and Windows 7 won't boot. Usually installing linux after windows is recommended, but Windows 7 complains about there being a problem with its boot process.

    How do I repair Windows 7 to boot correctly while maintaining grub to boot Ubuntu?

      Post more information! What's the specific error message? What partition was 7 originally on? What is the current partition structure? What are the contents of menu.lst?

      I'm sorry, I'm trying to do distance support, and I can't get much information. I just wanted to know if this was a well known problem. Thanks
