    boot up from Ubuntu LiveCD, open terminal and execute this
    Code:
    sudo grub-install /dev/hda
    in case you have SATA harddisk, replace hda with sda.
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    do you have SATA harddisk? replace hda with sda as i suggested in last post.
    in case, it throws error again, post the output of fdisk -l command here.
