I reinstalled XP to do a dualboot with 10.10 yesterday. All was fine. Today I went through and installed everything windows needed, and everything seemed fine. Then I upgraded the BIOS on my motherboard, and suddenly everything isn't fine. I can boot to Ubuntu just fine. But when I select Windows from the GRUB menu, it just sits there with a cursor on the screen now.

What is the problem here? What did I do?

It could be something with the update to the BIOS messed something up in Windows.

Something You can try is to download RescueCD, burn it to CD and then look at the documentation online on how to fix GRUB. If something got messed up due to the BIOS, this may fix your problem as well.
