And this will get your windows install back ^

Did you format the entire drive as ext4? If so your windows install is gone... Hopefully you had 2 separate partitions setup so you could try fixing the windows install MBR and then boot into a live CD and run update-grub.

I Tried this method but while using the live cd the system is so slow (and the internet) that it took me several attempts to get the results file... then i tried copying the results.txt to a usb thumb drive and it wasn't there when I tried booting back into windows....... ugh

enkrypt3d,

I thought we were trying to fix Charlie FCW's PC? I don't follow the purpose of your last post in that effort. Am I missing something?
