Last week I reinstalled Windows forgetting that it would overwrite grub and now I cannot access my Ubuntu side of my box. I wouldn't be so worried about it and would just reinstall everything but I have my homework on my Ubuntu side that was due last week. I really need to access it and need help like yesterday. All help would be great... Thank you...

To get your files boot up using the Ubuntu live cd then Places - Computer find your files and copy them over to the Windows partition.
Here is a howto to get grub back but I would get your files first and backup your windows files if needed!!
