Laptop does not boot (grub rescue)?

So I thought I could just delete my previously installed Linux partitions and normal in Windows. Well thought wrong, now comes only "Error: no search partition, Entering rescue mode…" And then comes the "grub rescue>" console

What should I do?

P.S. The command "ls" comes (hd0, msdos1)

Can it be that you have also deleted your Windows partition?

No, my main operating system is

And normal in Windows what?

The boot loader obviously does not find the default boot partition anymore. If that was the Linux partition, you can expect that if you deleted it. Now the information is missing, what you want to do with Windows. Do you want to install Windows, or is it already on the record? Did you back up the boot sector before installing Linux? Then just restore. Otherwise, you can use the Windows DVD to rebuild the boot sector. Before I post a manual for it, but it would make sense, you first explain more exactly what problem you want to solve actually.

Boot. Sry write error

Best to reinstall everything clean.

The more you have to guess as a reader, the more likely it is to waste time trying to post an inappropriate solution.

Is good…

Then just reinstall

And then what about the data?

Ok, then try a Windows recovery CD?

Is also ne other solution, for example, what to enter, to the CD I would have thought synonymous, but I have no degree there…

Boot from Windows DVD / Stick, open command window for repair, then:

bootrec / rebuildbcd

These commands are also useful:

bootrec / fixboot
bootrec / scanos

If you have another laptop PC, you can download it online and then burn it to a CD or a USB stick

First, boot a Linux distribution from the stick in live mode. When the Dektop appears connect an external hard drive and copy the important data by dragging and dropping on it.

So you have deleted the Linux partitions with the Windows Disk Manager, that is dμmm, because now the smaller part of the bootloader is alone in the MBR where he can't access / boot because it is gone.

What should I do?

Insert Windows DVD and write the Windows bootloader into the MBR with its repair mode, done!
