Windows 7 does not load(sometimes) after installing ubuntu.
I had a system with windows 7 installed.
I installed ubuntu 11.04 alongside windows.
The installer created another partition for ubuntu.
The problem is:
ubuntu loads perfectly fine.
Windows loads sometimes , sometimes the system restarts on the windows loading screen. I think it has something to do with ubuntu.
If windows loads and i continue to use windows , it will load everytime , but if I use ubuntu in between windows will not load for couple of times. Sometimes windows does not load at all.
I don't know anything about linux.
O/P of sudo fdisk is :
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 63 81915434 40957686 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda2 81915902 312580095 115332097 f W95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/sda5 81915904 163827711 40955904 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda6 163830933 245746304 40957686 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda7 245746368 294579461 24416547 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda8 294580224 308916223 7168000 83 Linux
/dev/sda9 308918272 312580095 1830912 82 Linux swap / Solaris
I think this is a known issue. Someone else had also posted about it. I think windows and ubuntu interfere with each other.
Thanks & Regards,
