I installed a dual boot Ubuntu with windows 8 a while ago on my sisters computer, but I didn't need Ubuntu anymore. So I followed instructions on how to remove Ubuntu, grub, and restore windows boot manager. But, I don't get windows. I get a CMD grub and that's it. I am very frustrated and upset because the computer is useless now. Is there any way to fix it?

Use windows 8 CD or live USB. Boot into CD/USB and select 'REPAIR' windows. Select the repair with Command prompt(CMD).
Type the below commands to get the windows boot loader to normal.
Bootrec/fixmbr
Bootrec/fixboot
After it gives successful message restart.
