Dual boot with Linux mint giving boot problems
hi all!
I tried to install Linux mint 14 along with Windows7 Professional on Compaq 420 laptop using UUI (universal usb installer).
During installation of mint it did not show the option of 'installing alongside existing OS', so i went with 'something else' option at the end.
Freed up space and installed it in my second partition of 100GB with root, swap and home.
Finally after restarting it showed the grub and linux is working fine, but when i try to boot windows it gives an error 'cx0000224' stating that it cannot load windows boot manager and try putting the image cd or installation cd of windows or contact manufacturer in case of not having the installation cd.
I do not have the installation cd anymore but luckily have saved my work externally.
I think i messed up big time, Pl. let know if there is a way to revert back and get my original windows software running again?
thx,..ucma
