I've just about lost my mind over this problem. here it is:
I just bought an acer aspire one netbook w/ 120g HDD. There was XP Home on it. I wanted to try gOS and Ubuntu. Ive never used ubuntu/linux until now, but i'm an experienced xp pro user. Anyways, I had xp on 90g, ubuntu on 10g, and gOS on 10gigs. Everything worked fine until I used PArtition Magic to partition my windows 90gig drive into a 12gig system drive and the rest for storage/backup. win restarted, screwed up GRUB and I couldn't boot ANYTHING after that. GRUB 17 error. Tried to fix that problem, and ended up deleting my win partition on accident. Now I can load ubuntu, but everytme i try to load Windows, it blue screens me right when you hit the menu to intall, repair windows. How can i fix this? I tried a live gpart program but it doesn't work. Im a noob to linux so please explain how to fix it as if you were talking to an old lady, thanks!
