MarkJohnson Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I just added a second drive to have a dual boot window 7 ultimate x64 and Ubuntu 9.10 x64.I had both drives connected and Ubuntu drive set as boot in windows. It installed Ubuntu, but failed on reboot as it could seem to find the boot file.I reboot, go into BIOS and set Win7 as boot disk and get a boot menu. It goes to Ubuntu, but seems locked up.I then reboot and hit ESC for dual boot menu options and chose win7 and get no disk drive found.after losing both OSs, I disconnect the win7 drive and install win7 again overwriting my Ubuntu drive. I backup what I can and reboot without issues.Then I disconnect the good win7 and connect by bad win7 to see if I can get it to reboot to recover emails from outlook and bookmarks from IE and firefox. But I get an error on the GRUB menu and it says:GRUB Loadingerror: no such diskgrub rescue>_I then try win7 recovery with no luck and then system restore with no luck. It alwasys says successful, but it doesn't give back the grub menu and won't boot.Is there a simple way to recover my disk so it is bootable?-=Mark=- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
