I installed Ubuntu, but the installation was primitive and probably the wrong edition. It was suggested it may have been the server edition. When I tried to re-install the proper edition, the installer did not detect windows 7 on my disk. Ubuntu is now installed on a separate partition. The ntfs partition is still intact and my windows os is visible as a device within the media folder of my ubuntu file system.

sudo parted -l
(please indent each line by four characters; this will preserve the formatting); that will tell us precisely how your disk is partitioned.fdisk
output is hard to follow because you didn't edit your question and post the information there in the manner instructed. In any event, you do have a rather large NTFS partition (/dev/sda5
), but it's unclear if that's your Windows boot partition or a data partition. Try running the Boot Info Script and posting a link to theRESULTS.txt
file that it produces for further diagnostics.
