If I could hug the creators of Super Grub Disk, I would. I have Fedora and WinXP installed on separate hard drives; had to reinstall XP due to virus. After that, of course, no more GRUB. No fear, though! I simply started up the Super Grub Disk, and chose the automatic option (with the ;-) for noobs) and presto! No more problems. Thanks so much, SGD!

This program saved my computer and my Master Boot Record. I had installed PCLinuxOS, but decided not to keep it so I deleted the partition from windows. Because of this, I was not able to boot windows since Grub bootloader was still “installed.” The only thing I had was the LiveCD for PCLinuxOS, so I could not burn this with an iso – I was already using my only dvd drive.

LUCKILY, you go to Super Grub Disk’s website and they give you very detailed instructions on how to create a bootable Super Grub Disk usb drive!!!!!!!! Unbelievable! I absolutely love it.

The way I solved my problem was going into Super Grub Disk, selecting Advanced>Grub>Uninstall Grub>Select Partition (Windows)>Syslinux as the bootloader.

After this, I used EasyBCD to recreate the Vista MBR just to make sure everything was back to normal.

Thank you Super Grub Disk!!!
