On 6/28 I set up my new computer, which came with Windows 7. I set it up as a dual boot system with Ubuntu 9.10, and it seemed to go fine. This is my first time setting up a dual boot system.
The next day, Windows automatically downloaded and installed a number of updates. The next time I tried to boot, it said that GRUB was not found and it couldn't find a hard drive to boot from. I couldn't boot into either Windows or Ubuntu. So I installed Ubuntu again on a new partition (I didn't want to write over the files in my existing Ubuntu partition). After that I was able to boot into Windows 7 or either of the existing Ubuntu partitions.
Today, again, Windows automatically downloaded and installed some updates, and the next time I tried to boot, it said a module did not exist and it couldn't find a hard drive to boot from. I am installing Ubuntu again.
Does anyone have any experience with this happening, and how I can stop it?
