    Re: Problem booting Windows with Dual-Boot

    Okay, it looks like i fixed my problem by booting up the Vista recovery partition that came with my laptop and doing
    Bootrec.exe /FixBoot

    Thanks a lot!

    Thanks for providing your solution! I had a similar problem on an HP laptop and your solution led me to mine.

    I used the Vista recovery partition and used the "Run Computer Checkup" tool to start a command prompt. Then I used your Bootrec.exe /FixBoot suggestion. However, that didn't quite work.

    I then had to use the Bootrec.exe /RebuildBcd command to refresh Windows' memory on exactly where it was located. Then after I restarted, Grub let me into Windows normally.
