Win 7 can't locate hard drive in system restore, can't load login
After power failure my Windows 7 can't load login screen. I have a custom dual boot machine with Ubuntu Linux and Windows 7. Ubuntu loads fine and I can access files for Windows 7 through it; however, when I try to log in to Windows, it refuses to load. I tried all kinds of things that I was able to Google about this, but no success. The problem is that Windows doesn't present any operating system to choose when I try to run "startup repair" so I cannot run "sfc /scanf" or any other restore command since the harddrive is not recognized. But I know that it's not the problem with HD or its connection to the motherboard since I can still access Window files through Linux, so I'm really lost at what to do now to fix this boot problem. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
