pc crashed...

[pous]

unfortunatley not, i havent used windows at home in the last 6 or so months... I was running 9.04 and installed the recomended updates that popped out while watching some movie online the last time I could actually log in...

Actually wubi does use grub. It chainloads grub from the windows bootloader. I had this same problem with a laptop recently after updates.

I was able to fix it following the steps outlined here - http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php...5&postcount=10

But instead of using the command

sudo update-grub2

after booting in, it should work with just

sudo update-grub

EDIT: Just realised you have 9.04 so you probably have the old grub installed.

Those commands might let you boot into ubuntu, but you might need to do something other than sudo update-grub to fix the problem.
