I'll try to describe what im doing and it hopefully I can get this up and running, so I can continue getting some work done!I have a windows 7 install and 3 hdds. I installed mint from windows, then had it boot up fine. From there I installed mint finally (from the cd icon on the desktop) to the second partition on drive 3 that i dedicated for it. All is working well and fine, but then i do something stupid and try to install ati drivers on an already working system, for my ati HD4870. They install and i restart and my video is now really low res and i cant make it any higher. So, because i dont know how to revert what i foolishly did I tried reinstalling mint again (haha). This was a mistake... Im not sure, but i tried to install on the same partition (formating it again).. but.. I might have selected a different drive for the boot loader to be on. So when I restarted i get something like "grub recovery>" and it wont boot. I can boot it into windows by selecting the hdd windows is on in the boot load order in bios. and from there I deleted the master boot record and made a new one for windows with easybcd and tried reinstalling mint again. Now i tried doing the same thing but this time i selected the windows install drive for the boot loader for mint. And now when i boot up i get "grub>" and it wont boot.
tl;dr I get "Grub>" and no boot when trying to boot into Mint after fresh install. I can still get into windows fine.
Obviously i messed up the boot loader or records somewhere, but unlike normal files I cant just delete and start over? Im not sure what drive to install the boot loader on to in the first place. (live "cd" drive? or the mint installed drive? the windows drive?)
Is there a way, in windows preferably, where I can just.. erase all traces of this "grub" so when i install mint again, it will work perfectly again?
Thanks for any help and sorry for the lengthy post. I and a complete newbie in linux so be gentle!
