We're sorry, but this site is all about Ubuntu and the people here are very good at dual-booting and removing Windows, but not very good at getting it back once it was removed... However, on superuser.com, a sister site to Ask Ubuntu, they're very good at deleting Ubuntu and installing Windows, so you might be better off there. ;-)– FabbyFeb 22, 2015 at 6:17

Try this http://sourceforge.net/p/boot-repair-cd/home/Home/ They have a version for 32 or 64 bit OS.
I also believe that the Windows restore cd has a mode to fix the bootloader, I just can't remember how it is started plus you had to issue commands. With the boot repair disk you just have to click the button.
