You just need to reinstall grub.
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Re...tallingWindows
That is if by reinstalling windows you did not overwrite your entire disk then you will need to reinstall Ubuntu.
Then put your data back into your /home folder, You did back up your data before you reinstalled?
If it was a wubi install then Ubuntu is gone: again you will need to reinstall.

'm getting a grub menu in a black screan.. jus like
GRUB >
wat i need to do now to get my ubuntu back
How did you install Ubuntu in the first place? wubi, or full install with separate partitioning?
How did you go about reinstalling WinXP?
If you have a live CD/DVD/usb, boot that up select "Try" when you get to the desktop open a terminal and copy and pasteinto the terminal hit enter twice then copy and paste the resulting output back here.Code:sudo fdisk -lu
If you still have the ubuntu partitions on your disk use the instructions from the first link above and restore grub to your mbr, if you do not have any partitions but the windows partitions then you will need to reinstall Ubuntu.
