Comment 124 for bug 441941

I'm frustrated that this hasn't been given a high level of importance.

I'm running Mint 8 on a Dell Vostro 1720. I'm running Win 7 Enterprise 32-bit. It is a clean install on a formatted drive...no Dell software, no installed services, and my antivirus is NOD32. This happens on every boot of Windows, whether I choose restart or shut down, whether or not changes are made to the system. I've upgraded my bios, still no dice. Every time I try to boot after running Windows I have to reinstall Grub2 from the live CD.

Stop trying to make this about Windows or Windows programs! Legacy worked fine, so in the upgrade from Legacy to Grub2 you lose a critical feature! If a basic install with no custom options renders a users machine unusable after exiting Windows, then this is a serious bug and it shouldn't be the users responsibility to get it fixed.

Debian has assigned this bug an "important" severity (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=550702), it should be here, too.
