...If you still got the live USB or CD (from which ubuntu was installed) try to "repair ubuntu" from it. You need to boot from this USB/CD, open up "install ubuntu" then you should find "repair ubuntu...".
...Tell me if you didn't understand anything from what I said

I downloaded the .iso and used that. The cd i got in the book had a much older version. like 9.04 or someshit.... – user300887 Jul 06 '14 at 06:02
