Installing Windows After Linux(Grub,Boot and OS selection menu problems)


Hi friends Boot issues are really very cumbersome. Some of you might have faced problems after you tried to install a fresh copy of Windows alongside Linux. The problem that occurs is the OS selection menu is not displayed.
So the PC on switching on automatically boots to windows and you have no option to use your linux OS.
Here is the solution-
  •  Download the Boot repair Disk either 32 or 64 bit according to your requirement or Linux version you have(Use 64 bit for recent computers and 32 bit for older ones)  from here.
  •  Make its bootable installation media (in USB or DVD).For learning how to make a bootable media click here
  •  Now restart your PC and press F8 or delete or F2 key to get the boot device selection menu ,   boot from this media you have created .
  •       Select the USB or DVD (according to the device you used in step 2).
  •       Now select the language and Click on Recommended Repair .

·         

       Wait till this completes.
·        As soon as the process is completed restart the system.
In most of the cases The OS choice menu is visible now. But if not ,and now the problem is you can only  boot into linux ..
Follow this guide Linux after Windows boot issues.
You will be definitely be able to use the dual boot with windows and linux.
