Hi
- pease could you tell me what did and did not work on the post http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...+BCDedit+error
thanks
I copied the key {723ed238-140e-11df-84cb-a1e8bb1b8261}Step 1: Try and uninstall Ubuntu via Wubi and note down the part of the error shown in the image above.
I downloaded and installed the EasyBCD2.0 build90. and added the entryStep 2: Download EasyBCD 2.0 (Google), install it and create a boot entry. To do this, launch EasyBCD and goto Add/Remove Entries. Now click the Linux/BSD tab and set the Type to "Wubi" and give it the name "Ubuntu". Finally, click "Add Entry".
This step also works fine..here is my outputStep 3: Now close EasyBSD and enter "cmd.exe" in the Windows search box on the start menu. Right click cmd.exe and select "Run as Administrator". Now, type "bcdedit.exe" into the Command Prompt window and hit enter.
It will spew a lot of writting into the Command Prompt but we want the end of it (Real-mode Boot Sector). Find the entry named "Ubuntu" and note down the identifier.
Code:Real-mode Boot Sector --------------------- identifier {723ed23f-140e-11df-84cb-a1e8bb1b8261} device partition=C: path \NST\AutoNeoGrub0.mbr description UbuntuI did the same but I got different screen as shown in screenshot..?Step 4: Close cmd.exe and now search for "regedit.exe" the same way as we did cmd.exe. Now goto Edit > Find and then search for the bit of text we took note of in the error at the beginning.
If all is well you should get a screen like the one shown below. We are going to edit the "VistaBootDrive" entry. Right click on it and select "Modify". Now delete the text shown in the box and replace it with the identifier you took note of from the Command Prompt earlier and click OK.
