I have used Super Grub to fix this problem but totally forgot how I managed to do it. I have tried every option but just can't get it to dual boot. I want to have the option during bootup to push 'esc' before the timer runs out and choose Windows or Ubuntu to boot. I have tried many posted solutions and read all I could on the forums but still can't get it. I can get it to boot only one or the other and never have a choice. It's not loading a Grub with both Windows and Unbuntu on it.
What are the magic steps in Super Grub to fix this problem?
