[SOLVED]
I have trid to fix this for the past two days but I haven't found a solution to my singular problem. The problem of my computer giving a grub/uefi error when I insert a windows 8 installer USB. (tested already)
I had a dual boot system workin well. Something happened to my windows 8 side and I decided to set back to factory preset. It started giving the grub error "Can't find gpt 7". I found that my windows 8 USB was causing problems but my ubuntu usb worked fine. I tried a number of online "fixes" for grub errors, but none worked. I then used a live USB and gparted to reformat the drive. I put in a new install of ubuntu 12.10 and hoped it would rewrite my hda1 to fix my problem.(standard install) It didn't. I then used boot-repair in various configurations but the same problem persisted.
Here is the info from the last boot-repair. http://paste.ubuntu.com/5711642/
Any and all help would be appreciated. I need both os's on my system for work. (I would rather not do a windows vm)
Thanks.
