Lap wont boot after deleting windows7 partition

Question

While I was using Ubuntu I accidently deleted the windows7 partition. When I rebooted I got the following error:

error:unknown file system,Entering rescue mode,grub rescue>

I've tried to reinstall Ubuntu, windows7 but the windows set up is loading files after that the windows logo is blinking forever,on Ubuntu-install Ubuntu option selected but system freezes.

"ls" command is used in the grub rescue> it results

the hard disk partitions as(hd0) (hd0,msdos15)...(hd0,msdos5)

If you didn't mess things up too much, you can solve the problem by booting a liveDVD or liveUSB and use Boot-Repair by opening a terminal and run:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair
sudo sed 's/trusty/saucy/g' -i /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yannubuntu-boot-repair-trusty.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y boot-repair && (boot-repair &)
