Grub Error 17 Fix
to the top Fix broken Windows 7 boot loader up vote 2 down vote favorite I have a computer that dual boots Windows 7 and Ubuntu through GRUB. Recently Windows failed to boot, and after trying various things to fix it, now when I choose Windows 7 in the GRUB menu, I get the message error: no such device: 9A7AC1417AC11B41 error: hd2 cannot get C/H/S values Press any key to grub loading error 17 android x86 continue... and when I press a key it brings me back to the GRUB menu. The message appears in the same style (colors and font) as the GRUB loader. I have noticed that windows uses two partitions, one called RECOVERY (16 GB) and one called OS (517 GB) and that the GRUB loader points to RECOVERY but Windows is on the OS partition. I can mount both partitions in Linux and the OS disk seems to have the right files. I used the Windows 7 recovery disk and the automated repair thing no longer finds any errors. How can I fix this an make Windows boot up again? fdisk -l outputs Disk /dev/mapper/isw_bdhfaghdfb_dell: 640.1 GB, 640141230080 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 77826 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 131072 bytes / 262144 bytes Disk identifier: 0x2dbec2f5 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/mapper/isw_bdhfaghdfb_dell1 1 5 40131 de Dell Utility Partition 1 does not start on physical sector boundary. /dev/mapper/isw_bdhfaghdfb_dell2 * 6 1918 15360000 7 HPFS/NTFS Partition 2 does not start on physical sector boundary. /dev/mapper/isw_bdhfaghdfb_dell3 1918 64772 504878877+ 7 HPFS/NTFS Partition 3 does not start on physical sector boundary. /dev/map

I have an "old" notebook where I've installed Windows XP and then Ubuntu 8.04 - everything worked well for http://askubuntu.com/questions/156474/grub-error-17-and-18-grub-rescue-how-to-boot-again a long time. After the kids played with it (i.e. I have not seen what happened), I couldn't boot anymore. Grub simply said Error 17, and nothing else. After several Error 17 failures, the error changed to Error 18 - and this is the error it shows now. What have I tried? I tried several Linux LIVE CD's and DVD's I have: Ubuntu 8.04, Kubuntu 10.04, Ubuntu 10.04, Ubuntu 11.10, Fedora 11, etc. - none of them is able to start, in all modes and options I tried (I have not manually edited the commands, but tried the provided options). I can't use the Live CD OS, and I can't install them either. This is important: it is ok to erase all HD contents! It is ok to format, repartition, lose all HD data - no problem. In most of the Ubuntu flavours, including the 8.04 CD, the initialization stucks, showing repeatedly the following error messages: ata3.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x0 ata3.00: BMDMA stat 0x25 ata3.00: cmd 25/00:08:e5:a5:50/00:00:12:00:00/e0 tag 0 dma 1024 in ata3.00: status: { DRDY ERR } ata3.00: error: { UNC } I also have tried the Windows XP installation CD.

So, they will error 17 windows merge their boot files. So, when one operating system goes down (or in your case gets deleted), the other one will not boot. The only way to fix this I think is to insert in your Win 7 DVD. Boot from it, and click repair my computer. This should repair it.
