Apparently Grub is installed on one of my 80gb hard drives even though it is part of an array. At this point, I think I understand what is happening, but I'm unsure of how to fix it. I am perfectly willing to reinstall one or both Windows and Ubuntu again. Everything is backed up on my storage drive. If there is a way to get it working without reinstalling, all the better.
