[Bug 1015171] [NEW] can't boot into Windows 7 after latest Ubuntu upgrade

[Ian Ackers]

Public bug reported:

Hello,

I was dual booting Ubuntu 11.10 for a long time and everything was going
great. Then I upgraded to 12.04, and then I could no longer boot into
Windows 7. I still have the boot selection however when I choose Windows
7, the windows emblem comes into view, nice and shiny, but it just stays
in that boot screen. Nothing happens. No errors, nothing. I have tried
all kinds of things using boot repair in Ubuntu but no luck. I have to
shut my computer off and reboot into Linux which is working great
thankfully. I hope that the latest boot help from boot repair will
provide enough information to solve this problem!

Sorry I don't know the source package, but if someone wants/needs it I
can follow a walk through.

If any one can help me out with this dual boot issue I would greatly
appreciate it!

Thanks in advance!
