I desperately need help! Grub 1.5 error code 17
Hi there, I really hope someone can help me. I think I've stuffed things up big time!
I'm trying to install windows 7 home premium on my hubbys laptop.
He had Linux Ubuntu on it, which he wanted wiped.
I tried just installing windows7 over the top of it but it wouldn't work...so silly me thought I'd have a go at wiping it myself! aaargh!!
Now I can't do anything and all I get is the following error...
Grub loading stage 1.5
grub loading please wait...
Error 17
Nothing else comes up at all and I can't boot any disc at all
I've already installed windows7 ultimate on my own computer but I had my pc partitioned with ubuntu and windows and (with some help) was able to install over the top of everything with no problems. Don't know what on earth has gone wrong this time. eeeek
Does anyone pleeeeeeeeze have any 'simple to follow' advice???
Kind regards
Shirley :)
