    My bootloader Changed suddenly.


    Hello ,

    Today I downloaded an Activation for Windows 7.

    It requires a reboot.

    When I rebooted suddenly I was in a "Grub Command prompt" apparently.

    Just like this :

    Important :

    I downloaded Ubuntu couple days ago but I removed it.
    I mean I had a boot loader with windows and ubuntu but I removed it.

    My question is this :

    How did it happened? , is this a Virus? and How can I go back to my previous bootloader when I would turn on my computer or reboot it and it would just go to Windows.

    Thanks in advance.

    You are better off in a Linux forum for bootloader questions.

    To get access to the Windows installation, you could try startup repair x3 times.

I seem to have done something that screwed up my Win 7 RC slightly, but I have no idea what it was.

What I mean is that after I type in my password the...
