    F8 button doesn't work after unistaling ubuntu


    Hello everyone!
    i am new here but not new to windows 7
    before some months i made two partitions on my hard drive to install ubuntu 10.10 and installed it sucessfull! the dual-boot thing worked very well also
    BUT yesterday i decided to unistall it so i formatted the two partitions where i had ubuntu and then using EasyBCD i reinstalled the windows vista/7 boot loader and worked well until today where i wanted to enter the advanced boot menu using the F8 button but it didnt work :'(
    i tryed several times but with no luck
    before the installation of ubuntu i was able to accses the menu but now i cant
    Is there any way to fix this?
    Thanks everyone for your time and your help!

    Download this: http://msft.digitalrivercontent.net/win/X17-24209.iso
    and burn it the ISO to a disk with Poweriso: PowerISO - Create, Burn, Mount, Edit, Compress, Encrypt, Split, Extract ISO file, ISO/BIN converter, Virtual Drive

    Now you have a Windows DVD so do repair with it

    Boot the dvd>choose your country> on the next tab select 'repair computer' choose your drive and choose the first option 'startup repair'

    the image is home premium (as you listed home premium in your specs)

    and please reboot page I updated post

    You can also try a system restore to before you installed ubuntu if the start up repair doesn't fix it
