Thread: GRUB lost sight of my Windows XP
iv installed ubuntu many users never had happon....on own hardware too!
did dual boot install of ubuntu 9.10. after that, when rebooted windows xp gone? did update-grub , still nothing. popped in grub super boot disk 2 , browsed around, think found says "error: invalid signature". iv googled , havent found solution yet.
booted off xp cd recovery console, sees windows partition , lets me , browse files. know there. tried fixmbr fixboot , loads recovery partition. booted supergrubdisk again , same results, sees ubuntu. reinstalled grub , square 1. tried checkdsk /r , tried on again. nothin'....
have encrypted files on drive using efs....i guess ok loose them, put lot of work them....
