I had been using windows xp and ubuntu dual boot sony vaio laptop for last 3-4 years. Recently it got drenched and after lot of headache finally it booted and I could log into windows. But it failed to load ubuntu.

Ubuntu was installed on another partition. Now I formatted ubuntu partition and with that am stuck with big problem. Cant log into windows too as I think GRUB was on ubuntu partition.

and damn my cd/dvd writer doesn't work and its not even booting from USB

Can you help?

Being drenched is very bad for a computer. It's likely that your disk is dead. The rest of the computer may be salvageable if you've left it to dry (this can take a few weeks). – Gilles Dec 10 '10 at 0:40
I could use windows for more than a week so it was OK. After deleting ubuntu partition I lost control over how can i resurrect it to life – Ketan Khairnar Dec 10 '10 at 4:48
