After uninstalling ubuntu, i can no longer boot vista!!?

November 1st, 2008 · 2 Comments

I tried out ubuntu, didnt like it. So i went back into the partition manager from the ubuntu install disk. I formatted the partition that ubuntu was on and made some free space for the place im about to install Mac OS X Leopard. Unfortunatly when I go to boot, the stupid GRUB loader tries to load and fails. The only thing I can do now is shut down my computer. I don’t have the Vista Re-install disk (i lent them to a friend) What can I do?

      You need to get your Vista cd back and repair the boot manager in Vista.

      You can install Leopard and make it the boot manager but you still have to repair the vista boot manager with the vista install.

      You can download a vista install disk here:

      and burn a bootable dvd.
