Oooooohhh boy does this bring back memories... Use hirens dvd if you have one. This is how I usually fix bootloader issues with. That or use a Windows DVD , boot into repair mode, let it search for your installation, select the windows version you want it to repair and it will rebuild your bootloader automatically.

Did you use bootsect? Or it's GUI counterpart dual-boot repair tool for Windows?

linuxxx70This guy at my last internship. A windows fanboy to the fucking max! He was saying how he'd never use anythi...
"Grub installation failed would you like to try again or continue without a bootloader?"
I was like well why in the burning hell would you even touch the bootloader on a completely different drive then you are installed on.
Boy, never was I so wrong...
That motherfucker deleted the windows bootloader and I've tried everything to get it back. Even tried to restore the whole frickin boatloader from scratch, with no success.
Best I could do was to make a pendrive with the bootloader on so I can boot up that shit. Four days have passed and still no luck in fixing it.
Well I guess I will call this a security feuture. If you don't insert the correct thumb drive you couldn't access the computer.
