I'm new to linux world. Just downloaded ubuntu and installed it alongside with windows 7 . In grub when I choose ubuntu, it opens with no problem, but when I try to open windows 7, this message appears:

A Disk Read Error Occured. Press CTRL+ALT+DEL to restart.

I googled for that problem which directed me to download a boot repair tool, when I choose : advanced options / retore MBR --> apply, then restart computer , It boot to win 7 without loading the grub menu.

then I opened the live ubuntu from a USB, launched the "boot repair" again, choose : recommended repair , then restart, It returns to the first problem , grub menu appear, from which I can choose only ubuntu , but win 7 show this msg again :

A Disk Read Error Occured. Press CTRL+ALT+DEL to restart.

I repeated more and more with the same results ...

What should I do?

I created a boot info summary using the "boot repair tool" if this can help , it's in this URL.
