    BSOD after installing ubuntu


    installed ubuntu 11.04 for educational purposes. i restarted my laptop.

    i have to select my os from grub(purplish screen). i choose windows. now i need to select whether to runwindows or ubuntu(in the windows). i select windows 7. after i get to starting windows and the 4 flags get together. i get BSOD.

    ubuntu 11.04 works perfectly fine. win7 doesnt. i gave the ubuntu os about 25gigs or so of hdd space

    is there any way to fix this WITHOUT rebooting my whole drive?

    for use-
    toshiba satellite a665-6067
    windows 7 home premium 64bit
    i7 core 720q
    nvidia geforce GT 330m
    500gig hdd
    4gigs RAM


    currently right now im trying to reinstall grub from ubuntu's cmd, terminal
