I do not know win7, but I suppose you should get a menu item in grub2 from 
where you can run a win7 recovery routine in the same way it would do for xp. 
So, not from Kubuntu, but in grub, soon after boot and provided you have 
disabled the fast boot option.

Yes. Indeed you can run gparted (or maybe kde partition manager) and I'm sure 
it will be clear how to proceed once you are in there.
