I have recently installed windows 7 on ubuntu.. This is how I did it- first I made a ntfs partition for my windows 7 installation, then I made a bootable usb from an iso file of windows 7 , and I booted from the usb. Every thing was fine, all the files expanded and installed , then my system restarted to complete the installation but instead of booting windows 7, it again started to boot from the usb. After removing the usb, it booted to ubuntu instead of windows... what could be the problem? I could see all the files installed in the windows 7 partition from ubuntu system.

Did you run sudo update-grub to make grub recognize the Windows installation?
Maybe you have to modify some settings in /etc/default/grub, too. For example, GRUB_TIMEOUT and GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT.

I updated the grub, which showed option to boot to windows on the boot loader. I even boot into windows but installation completion didn't happen , it showed this message "Windows Setup could not configure Windows to run on this computer's hardware" – SUSH Jun 25 '15 at 11:29
