    I would run ubuntu partition manager, Get a copy of ubuntu from here http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download , burn the ISO and run the LIVE version, do not install! Then when it opens with ubuntu desktop go to System > Administration > partition Manager...When that opens you need to FLAG you respawn partition and BOOT!!! then restart and it will restart in respawn mode!!!
