I installed Ubuntu 14.04.1 from a DVD I burned. Ubuntu runs perfectly, but when I select Windows 7 from GRUB, the screen goes blank (with some coloured lines at the very top of the screen). From here, the only way to get back to GRUB to force shut-down the machine from the power button.
I have updated grub2.
I have also tried boot repair, but all it did was create two Windows options from GRUB menu:
- Windows 7 (loader) (on
/dev/sda1
) - Windows 7 (loader) (on
/dev/sda2
)
Both of them have the same result as earlier. Blank screen with some colourful pixels at the top of my monitor (top 2 or 3 pixels). Here's my boot repair pastebin.
P.S. This is not a duplicate of Can't boot Windows 7 after installing Ubuntu as I am able to select Windows from the grub menu but it crashes afterwards.
