Is one of the OS's booting by default? If so, which one?

Also, what DO you see when you start up the PC.

It could be a simple matter of reinstalling GRUB to the MBR of the disk, which can be done using the info in the link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows

Thanks. It worked.
How i solved the problem:
1. I used the windows 7 cd to run the repair mode
2. i chose the terminal
3. in the terminal i have typed:
bootrec.exe /FixMbr
bootrec.exe /FixBoot
bootrec.exe /ScanOs
4. I rebooted the system
5. Windows succesfully was running
6. I used the ubuntu cd and chose Try Ubuntu
7. I downloaded the Boot-Repair
8. I have chose "recommended repair"
9. Rebooted the system after it succesfully repaired boot
10. And now i have been able to chose what system i wanna use, and both of them works :]

sounds like work to me.

Could start at number six but use linux secure, boot, try, click "fix boot", then restart (minus a couple yes and no's)
