When you first turn on your computer, a ``bootloader'' must start Ubuntu or another operating system. \marginnote{A \define{bootloader} is the initial software that loads the operating system when you switch on the computer.} When you installed Ubuntu, you installed an advanced bootloader called \define{\acronym{GRUB}} which allows you to choose between the various operating systems on your computer, such as Ubuntu, Windows, Solaris or Mac OS X. However, when you installed Windows, it replaced the \acronym{GRUB} with its own bootloader, thus removing the ability to choose which operating system you'd like to use. You can restore \acronym{GRUB} and regain the ability to choose your operating system by using the same \acronym{CD} you used to install Ubuntu.
