I have DELL 1720 , grub version 1.97 beta - from the newest kubuntu 9.10

First i install win7, next linux mint and linux kubuntu. I use all
system. I used win7 realy rare, one time in month. One time after closing win7 i saw black display. I had to repair grub from live cd. It was repeated 4 time. Last time I was sure of reason this error . When win7 was download updates and start install it during closing system. During that windows have to write something in mbr, i think so, After restarting i see in the top of display "Grub loading .." and nothing happen. After 10 reconds waiting computer is automaticly reboot, and the same all time, as long as i don't power off.

So Update of windows broke mbr. I advise turn off update in windows or make all updates in one time.
