Errr... OK. So there's this Linux I wanted to get, and it was free, so I got it. I made the partition in the hard drive, and everything worked fine. I had Dual Boot, so whenever I started up my computer, I could choose between gOS (the Linux distribution I got) or Vista.
I wasn't really using it, so I wanted to delete it because it was hogging disk space. I looked in gOS for some kind of uninstall, but there was none, so I just went into some kind of manager built into Vista in order to remove the partition manually. None of them had names, so I checked how much space gOS had, and it had 50.9GB. Then I deleted the partition with 50.9GB in the Vista partition thingy, by right-clicking it, and then just pressing delete.
Baaaaaaad idea.
Now, Whenever I start my computer, it's frozen on the following:
"GRUB Loading stage1.5.
GRUB loading, please wait...
Error 17"
So... ummmm... anyone know what to do here? I'm kinda stuck...

Do a system recovery on the startup screen. Look for it(I think it's F12), and just use it to remove that.

I just fixed it by re-installing gOS on my computer. However, the spacebar on my computer is acting weirdly because I smashed it on the floor when the computer didn't work. I'll have to get that fixed.
