Thread: I stuffed the install


hi

when installed ubuntu wanted dual boot windows 7, have 2 200 gb drives , 1 had windows 7 on it.

got bit click happy during install , managed install ubuntu on top of windows 7 , not work anymore.

there anyway can uninstall , windows reinstall on correct drive without damage old windows files.

appreciated

regards

first thing do, disconnect drive overwrote windows on. install ubuntu on correct drive (this way you're working, won't continue overwriting more of old files). boot new ubuntu installation, , try out program called testdisk. odds you'll able recover things, can't tell how much.

edit: when booting after plugging second drive in, make sure boot correct one. also, make sure recover files second hard drive, not 1 windows on.
