I think what your saying is you upgraded to W7 from XP today and lost the Ubuntu boot.

Can you confirm this and tell us the Ubuntu OS, and post the output from.
sudo fdisk -l

Hi Dyimz! Can you post the link that helped you restore grub? I'd like to keep that close at hand in case it happens to me. I'm on dual boot too. Thanks :)

Hi Mr.Xulu,

Here's the link:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows

I followed the steps from 'Create and boot from a Live CD' up to 'Overwriting the Master Boot Record' only.
