Re: Problems with grub
Did you install with the manual method? Did you delete any partition that said System Reserved?
With win7 microsoft started putting two boot files on a small separate partition. If you delete this partition you can't boot win7 any more because the boot files are gone. It seems that is what happened.
You can try repairing the win7 install if you have the dvd. But first boot ubuntu and open Gparted (you might need to install it). Then right-click /dev/sda2 and select Manage Flags. Set the boot flag on /dev/sda2, not it's on /dev/sda3. It needs to be on the win7 partition.
Then boot with the win7 dvd and do the repair process 3-4 times, sometimes it needs to be done more than once. See if win7 starts booting directly. The repair will delete grub2 from the MBR but don't worry about this. You can reinstall it easily with the ubuntu cd.
First try to repair the win7 boot, when it starts booting fine post here and we'll help you reinstall grub2. DO NOT reinstall ubuntu again just because grub2 is not showing up, that will mess it up further.
