hi i installed ubuntu on my harddisk with vista and xp preinstalled... as it happened i lost my vista boot loader after i formatted the linux drive... help me to recover my vista....
recover windows vista boot loader
Boot using Vista Setup DVD and select option to Repair the installation. It'll repair the boot loader.
How about fixing MBR ?

AFAIK there is no option fix mbr or fix boot in Vista like in Xp.You have to chose Boot Repair option.Those commands are replaced by GUI
Why haven't you installed Vista?
