Well I installed commodore OS, now it doesn't work at all, no windows, no linux, I can only boot from the C-OS disc, I cant even use the F8 key to change the MBR
I did install it on a separate disc and partition
 
all I get when I try to boot is this....
error:no such device: f4a4fa76-6eda-450b-bo7e-3c58227176d0
grub rescue>

HELP!!!!!

fdisk /mbr to restore your boot record or use a Windows disk if you have one.

Sorry to hear that Les... it's always frustrating to lose your files like that.

GRUB is the bootloader. It may have corrupted the Windows bootloader or just did not install properly.
