I tried all method suggested but all failed. even with acer recovery which
reinstall original image to c: drive my pc boot into d: ubuntu...

my last attemp was getting an original windows 7 dvd and use repair boot
record option, as shown by shaffuinizam and it work!! :D

now my question is:
1. my 500 mb d: hdd become 250mb as it contains abt 250mb of ubuntu files in
it. how can I delete ubuntu files fr win7?
2. I still like ubuntu. whats d "safe" way to instal ubuntu without getting
into similar trouble again?

thank you.. especially shaifful....
