Hi there,
I have a pre-installed laptop. Because of fastboot and recovery-function, there are several partitions.
I have installed Ubuntu 12.4 via Live-CD, with shrinking the main-partition(win7) to get space for ubuntu.
ubuntu works fine. grub-menu is general. I have 2 entries for ubuntu, normal and recovery. I have one entry for win7 and one for win-recovery.
when I choose win7, screen gets black for 2 seconds and I get back to grub-menu.
the enttry for win-recovery works, but i can't use it, because it will set default-settings.
I have installed bootrepair, and tried the recommended auto-repair, where grub is re-installed. but the problem is the same.
I'm not sure how to change MBR or FIXMBR, because I read different things about it.
also I think, I can't do fixmbr with WIN-cd because it's a pre-installed system...
THX for helping me.
here's the log of boot-repair:

(wanted to paste it, but doesn't look fine ;-)
