This post is only for the Linux users. If you want to use Linux with Windows you need to install a boot loader. Most of the latest distros provides a boot loader (ex: grub) and it installs automatically with the OS. If you install Windows after installing Linux the boot loader will disappear, in other words, you are unable to load Linux OS. To solve this problem you need to reinstall grub boot loader. First of all, you need to find a live Linux CD and boot it without installing. (
