You will need a bootable Linux setup of some sort to do this, so you can use the grub program. You might try:

1) downloading an Ubuntu ISO file and burning a new LiveCD. That way you will have an Ubuntu CD again.

2) If your computer can boot from a USB stick and you have one, you can download the Windows version of unetbootin (http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/) and create a bootable USB stick. From there, you should be able to use grub.

Let me know if you make progress with either of these options and need additional help.

Can you help with this problem?
