It had 3 partitions: windows 8.1, windows 10 and ubuntu. Recently the ubuntu partition became corrupted.. (I don't remember now exactly what happened, I just know that all of a sudden I wasn't able to boot into ubuntu). I have since re-installed ubuntu.. I can see that the two windows partitions are still there, but I have completely lost the ability to choose, at boot, which OS I want to go into. This is not my area of expertise. I would prefer not to just start all over from scratch. I hope someone here can recommend a process whereby I can get the master boot record (I think that's what the issue is) to ask me at boot whether I'm looking to startup Ubuntu, Windows 8.1 or Windows 10.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!<br><br><br>Best wishes,</div><div><br></div><div>Joshua<br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="m_1916024809613714829m_-3907803119685360046m_1819217122991206937gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><a href="http://www.linkedin.com/in/jfreeman" target="_blank"><img src="https://static.licdn.com/scds/common/u/img/webpromo/btn_viewmy_160x33.png" width="160" height="33" border="0" alt="View Joshua S.
