Thread: Broken win7/12.04 Dual Boot


hi there,
decided dual boot win7 , 12.04, , on doing managed break something... guessing mbr (hoping it's not entire partition). menu shows ubuntu, win7 , vista boot options, errors on win options.

http://paste.ubuntu.com/1371207/ shows output boot-repair.

ideas can fix this?

cheers.

stop using computer right away!

overwrote win7 partition ubuntu. more boot ubuntu, less data can save.

use ubuntu cd in live mode, not boot hdd.

in live mode, download testdisk , run it. deeper search explained, , post screenshot of results.

if can figure out partition need restore, can continue, otherwise ask before anything.

looks used manual partitioning install , told use win7 partition installed on it.

testdisk can help, if doesn't, have backup of data?
