I already had Windows 7 on my C: drive.
I used the Ubuntu LiveCD which didn't contain any rescue software to install.
I had an NTFS partition (C: for Windows), blank NTFS partition Dee
I used the partition program/installer from the Ubuntu LiveCD. I chose custom,
formatted the Dee drive and installed Ubuntu to it. It created a swap drive on it's own.
Left C: intact. I must have chose the wrong bootloader when setting up because the grub loader shows Linux, Linux Recovery, 2 Memtests, and Windows 7. When I choose Windows 7 it just loops back to the same screen that prompts me for a choice. I booted into Ubuntu and checked the disks, the main partition states NTFS and partition type states 'Linux (0x83)', this is my main partition that contains Windows 7 (/dev/sda2). Both partitions are on 1 hard drive (/dev/sda) Ubuntu is on /dev/sda5
I tried booting with a Windows 7 disk to repair the mbr, but first I had to go into BIOS and turn on the ACPI. Then I tried again and the recovery tool showed my previously installed Windows but an error pops up saying the System Recovery tool isn't compatible for this version of Windows or something like that. Keep in mind I'm using the same Windows CD that I used to install it in the first place. I found ms-sys for linux but I don't know how to compile it. Also, I have Boot-Repair and don't know how to fix this problem. I also have Grub-Customizer and don't know how to use it either. I have the Linux LiveCD but don't know how to do anything with it. I've installed LILO as well.
I've read about these:
sudo ms-sys -7 /dev/sda
fixmbr
fixboot
I cannot use any of those because of what I stated above.
Windows was already installed first, Win 7 CD won't work,
have Linux CD, need help with ms-sys 2.2.1 if possible, boot-repair or grub-customizer help if possible OR any other fix is appreciated.
Thanks.

# | Don't forget to run 'lilo' after you make changes to this |

# #################### LILO global section ######################
# With all newer systems (until year 2004) you can use the RAM
# above 15 MB. This option allows the use of this range of RAM.
#large-memory
# With all newer systems you can boot from any partition on disks
# with more than 1024 cylinders. This option allows the use of
# partitions above 1024 cylinders.
lba32
# Specifies the boot device. This is where Lilo installs its boot
# block. It can be either a partition, or the raw device, in which
# case it installs in the MBR, and will overwrite the current MBR.
# With newer kernel you should use the ID of the boot device, which
# can be found here: /dev/disks/by-id/ata*.
#boot = /dev/sda
boot = /dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_WD7500AAKS-22RBA0_WD-WCAPT0817149
# This option may be needed for some software RAID installs.
#raid-extra-boot = mbr-only
# Enable map compaction. This tries to merge read requests for
# adjacent sectors into a single read request. This drastically
# reduces load time and keeps the map smaller. Using 'compact'
# is especially recommended when booting from a floppy disk.
# It is disabled here by default because it doesn't always work.
#compact
# Set the verbose level for bootloader installation. Value range:
# 0 to 5. Default value is 0.
#verbose = 1
# Specifies the location of the map file. Lilo creates the (sector)
# map file of direct sector addresses which are independent of any
# filesystem.
map = /boot/map
# ---------------------------------------------------------------
# Specifies the menu interface. You have the choice between:
# text: simple text menu with black background and white text
# menu: configurable text menu with background and text colors.
# bmp: graphical menu with 640x480 bitmap background.
install = menu
# A) Customized boot message for choice 'text'.
# For the simple text menu you can set an extra message in the
# created file. Its text will be displayed before boot prompt.
#message = /boot/message.txt
# B) Configuration of the scheme for choice 'menu'.
# Use following coding: <text>:<highlight>:<border>:<title>
# The first character of each part sets the text frontcolor,
# the second character of earch part sets the text backcolor,
# an upper-case character sets bold face text (frontcolor).
# i.g. 'menu-scheme=wm:rw:wm:Wm'. Possible colors:
# k=black, b=blue, g=green, c=cyan, r=red, m=magenta, y=yellow, w=white.
menu-scheme = Wb:Yr:Wb:Wb
#menu-title = " DESDEMONA Boot-Manager "
# C) Configuration of the image for choice 'bmp'.
# For the graphical menu you need a bitmap file, which needs a special
# menu configuration in the file header (see: lilo -E). Ideally you
# use one of the delivered images of the lilo package.
# with 16 colors: onlyblue, tuxlogo, inside
# with 256 colors: coffee
# for Debian: debianlilo, debian, debian-de
#bitmap = /boot/tuxlogo.bmp
# ---------------------------------------------------------------
# Specifies the number of deciseconds (0.1 seconds) how long LILO
# should wait before booting the first image. LILO doesn't wait if
# 'delay' is omitted or set to zero. You do not see the defined menu.
#delay = 20
# Prompt to start one certain kernel from the displayed menu.
# It is very recommeded to also set 'timeout'. Without timeout boot
# will not take place unless you hit return. Timeout is the number
# of deciseconds (0.1 seconds) after there the default image will
# be started. With 'single-key' alias numbers for each menu line can
# be used.
prompt
timeout = 100
#single-key
# ---------------------------------------------------------------
# Specifying the VGA text mode that should be selected when booting.
# The following values are recognized (case is ignored):
# vga=normal 80x25 text mode (default)
# vga=extended 80x50 text mode (abbreviated to 'ext')
# vga=ask stop and ask for user input: choice of text mode
# vga=<mode> use the corresponding text mode number. A list of
# available modes can be obtained by booting with
# vga=ask' and then pressing [Enter].
# Another way is the use of frame buffer mode. Then the kernel
# will switch from the normal vga text mode (80x25) to the frame
# buffer mode (if frame buffer support is in the kernel):
# vga=0x314 800x600 @ 16 bit
# vga=0x317 1024x768 @ 16 bit
# vga=0x318 1024x768 @ 24 bit
#vga = ask
vga = normal
#vga = 0x317
# ---------------------------------------------------------------
# Kernel command line options that apply to all installed images go
# here. See 'kernel-parameters.txt' in the Linux kernel 'Documentation'
# directory. I.g. for start into 'init 5' write: append="5"
#append = ""
# If you used a serial console to install Debian, this option should be
# enabled by default.
#serial = 0,9600
# Set the image which should be started after delay or timeout.
# If not set, the first defined image will be started.

# +-------------------------------------------------------------+
# | !! Reminder !! |
# | |
# | Don't forget to run 'lilo' after you make changes to this |
# | conffile or you have installed a new kernel. |
# +-------------------------------------------------------------+
# #################### LILO global section ######################
# With all newer systems (until year 2004) you can use the RAM
# above 15 MB. This option allows the use of this range of RAM.
#large-memory
# With all newer systems you can boot from any partition on disks
# with more than 1024 cylinders. This option allows the use of
# partitions above 1024 cylinders.
lba32
# Specifies the boot device. This is where Lilo installs its boot
# block. It can be either a partition, or the raw device, in which
# case it installs in the MBR, and will overwrite the current MBR.
# With newer kernel you should use the ID of the boot device, which
# can be found here: /dev/disks/by-id/ata*.
#boot = /dev/sda
boot = /dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_WD7500AAKS-22RBA0_WD-WCAPT0817149
# This option may be needed for some software RAID installs.
#raid-extra-boot = mbr-only
# Enable map compaction. This tries to merge read requests for
# adjacent sectors into a single read request. This drastically
# reduces load time and keeps the map smaller. Using 'compact'
# is especially recommended when booting from a floppy disk.
# It is disabled here by default because it doesn't always work.
#compact
# Set the verbose level for bootloader installation. Value range:
# 0 to 5. Default value is 0.
#verbose = 1
# Specifies the location of the map file. Lilo creates the (sector)
# map file of direct sector addresses which are independent of any
# filesystem.
map = /boot/map
# ---------------------------------------------------------------
# Specifies the menu interface. You have the choice between:
# text: simple text menu with black background and white text
# menu: configurable text menu with background and text colors.
# bmp: graphical menu with 640x480 bitmap background.
install = menu
# A) Customized boot message for choice 'text'.
# For the simple text menu you can set an extra message in the
# created file. Its text will be displayed before boot prompt.
#message = /boot/message.txt
# B) Configuration of the scheme for choice 'menu'.
# Use following coding: <text>:<highlight>:<border>:<title>
# The first character of each part sets the text frontcolor,
# the second character of earch part sets the text backcolor,
# an upper-case character sets bold face text (frontcolor).
# i.g. 'menu-scheme=wm:rw:wm:Wm'. Possible colors:
# k=black, b=blue, g=green, c=cyan, r=red, m=magenta, y=yellow, w=white.
menu-scheme = Wb:Yr:Wb:Wb
#menu-title = " DESDEMONA Boot-Manager "
# C) Configuration of the image for choice 'bmp'.
# For the graphical menu you need a bitmap file, which needs a special
# menu configuration in the file header (see: lilo -E). Ideally you
# use one of the delivered images of the lilo package.
# with 16 colors: onlyblue, tuxlogo, inside
# with 256 colors: coffee
# for Debian: debianlilo, debian, debian-de
#bitmap = /boot/tuxlogo.bmp
# ---------------------------------------------------------------
# Specifies the number of deciseconds (0.1 seconds) how long LILO
# should wait before booting the first image. LILO doesn't wait if
# 'delay' is omitted or set to zero. You do not see the defined menu.
#delay = 20
# Prompt to start one certain kernel from the displayed menu.
# It is very recommeded to also set 'timeout'. Without timeout boot
# will not take place unless you hit return. Timeout is the number
# of deciseconds (0.1 seconds) after there the default image will
# be started. With 'single-key' alias numbers for each menu line can
# be used.
prompt
timeout = 100
#single-key
# ---------------------------------------------------------------
# Specifying the VGA text mode that should be selected when booting.
# The following values are recognized (case is ignored):
# vga=normal 80x25 text mode (default)
# vga=extended 80x50 text mode (abbreviated to 'ext')
# vga=ask stop and ask for user input: choice of text mode
# vga=<mode> use the corresponding text mode number. A list of
# available modes can be obtained by booting with
# vga=ask' and then pressing [Enter].
# Another way is the use of frame buffer mode. Then the kernel
# will switch from the normal vga text mode (80x25) to the frame
# buffer mode (if frame buffer support is in the kernel):
# vga=0x314 800x600 @ 16 bit
# vga=0x317 1024x768 @ 16 bit
# vga=0x318 1024x768 @ 24 bit
#vga = ask
vga = normal
#vga = 0x317
# ---------------------------------------------------------------
# Kernel command line options that apply to all installed images go
# here. See 'kernel-parameters.txt' in the Linux kernel 'Documentation'
# directory. I.g. for start into 'init 5' write: append="5"
#append = ""
# If you used a serial console to install Debian, this option should be
# enabled by default.
#serial = 0,9600
# Set the image which should be started after delay or timeout.
# If not set, the first defined image will be started.
#default = Linux
# ################### LILO per-image section ####################
# Each image is configured with the linux kernel (=image) and
# usually with the initrd file. Configure all GNU/Linux systems
# on other partitions, too.
