Looks like Ubuntu grub was installed in sda1 instead of sda
Windows sda5 has no boot files in it.
sda1 is Dell utility not a boot partition.
Do not usually see Windows install in a logical partition sda5 likes primary sda1, sda2,sda3 or sda4
Put in the Ubuntu Live cd and choose try Ubuntu and with internet working do this.
Code:
sudo apt-get install lilo
Code:
sudo lilo -M /dev/sda mbr
May show error messages about the rest of lilo missing, ignore, we just want MBR
Now reboot into Windows.
Put install CD back in and Choose try ubuntu and do this in a terminal.
Code:
sudo mount /dev/sda7 /mnt
Code:
sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda
Now choose ubuntu and go into ubuntu and open a terminal and:
Let us know.
