Mind or otherwise, can you vouch for the images there? Or is there
some way to check against a known-valid cryptographic checksum?
I personally would rather pay for a copy of MSWindows Home than
download an image from a non-Microsoft site, but maybe that's just me.
(And I hate to recommend paying extra Microsoft tax, but a system
installer is just too easy to hid the really bad kinds of malware on.)
If the OP's original drive that contains MSWindows 7 is still as it
was when he bought it, there's probably a recovery partition.
So he actually should be thinking in terms of restoring a Microsoft
MBR on that drive, after copying off the MBR that grub seems to have
overwritten it with.
