As I said in another post, I'm a new Ubuntu user. I've installed Ubuntu and I did not delete windows 7 , but after installing Ubuntu, windows was in boot menu but when I clicked on windows to load,I see this error:

A disk read error occured press ctrl+Alt+ Del to restart

I'm using Ubuntu right now, but I can't switch to windows ..

I don't know what to do in order to have Ubuntu and windows simultaneously ..

Insert Windows 7 CD -> Restart -> BIOS -> BOOT PRIORITY -> Make CD/DVD boot first then Windows 7 CD loads select Repair . This will repair your Boot Loader of Windows 7. This will start your Windows 7.

Windows 7 boot loader cannot recognise GRUB (linux) boot loader but GRUB can, So now configure grub boot loader(linux boot loader) by following this post.

In this article Live CD means bootable pendrive or CD which you used for Installing Ubuntu.

Comment if you need any help.
