I previously had Ubuntu 9.x and Windows 7 installed at my laptop after I decided to upgrade Ubuntu to 10.04.

After the upgrade finished, now at the boot selection menu I am able to select Windows 7, but after it starts it tries to fix some errors and says that it's unable to load. Ubuntu 10.04 loads just fine.

I'm sharing the fdisk -l output in case it helps:

We need more info than that. Run the boot info script as explained here:

and post the content of your results file.
