1.use windows7 recovery disk to recover windows bootloader.
2.once the windows7 bootloader is fixed , if you additionally want linux to show in boot menu (grub) ,
3. there is a similar boot recovery disk for linux . download that iso (about 300MB) and burn it to a cd then repair the linux bootloader.
finally after a restart , you will have a grub menu showing options on which os to boot . linux and windows7.

Hope that helps.
