Netbook won't boot after using EasyBCD
- by TNC
I have an Asus T91MT netbook on which I used to have Windows 7 Home Premium and Ubuntu 10.10 installed (dual boot).
After trying to upgrade to Ubuntu 11.04, Ubuntu is no longer able to boot, so I tried to uninstall Ubuntu completely and then reinstall it. Following these directions, I tried using EasyBCD to bypass the GRUB2 bootloader so that after uninstalling, it would automatically boot into Windows 7.
However, after doing the "install BCD" step and restarting, I got the following message:
Windows failed to start... File:
\Boot\BCD; Status: 0xc0000098; Info:
The Windows Boot Configuration Data
file does not contain a valid OS
entry.
I'm currently trying to create a USB stick of the Windows Installation disc but in the mean time, I can only boot from a Ubuntu USB stick.
Is there anything I can do from within Ubuntu to fix this? Or does anyone have any other suggestions/solutions?
