Hi all !
I just upgraded my motherboard n after successfully installing it i found out that windows wont boot due to the wrong drivers ! I cant even run it in safe mode !! .. I have another partition running Linux mint, its working fine, n i can access the system32 directory of windows 7 (from/via linux file explorer) ... So my question is: Can i delete drivers manually through linux knowing that i dont have any other alternatives (no usb keys, no cd/dvd drive...). Thank u in advance.

Tricky situation.
Generally, you install Windows first, then Linux.

You'll almost certainly have to edit the GRUB data.
