So here's the deal. I Installed Ubuntu via USB in dual boot with Win7. I partitioned the drive so Ubuntu had like 22 gigs. I didn't want my drive to be split up so I goog'd a partition manager and got EaseUS. I wiped the partition Ubuntu was on, then I merged it with the C: drive. It told me it needed to reboot so I let it reboot and now when I turn my 'puter on it has a black screen with "grub rescue". Kinda like command prompt. I can type shit but I dunno any commands. Someone help me please ;-;

Easiest way to fix a problem like this is to insert your Windows 7 DVD and run "fixmbr" in the repair console. It completely removes GRUB and rewrites the MBR to the WIndows standard.

I did what Jamstruth said actually. I had a Win7 disc lying around, I loaded command prompt via the disc, then ran the following commands: "bootrec /fixmbr" and "bootrec /fixboot"
