Linux after Win 7

[sanju_nlp81]

Well one of my clients HP DV4 notebook came with pre-installed win 7 home premium. He installed Fedora core on that to have a try. After that, neither Acronis nor gparted can access the hdd not tell of any other bootable disc. What to do ???

Does both Win 7 & Fedora work?

Are you saying that the HDD became undetectable? What's there on Gparted? Is it showing some partitions? Perhaps when installing Fedora, he didn't go well through GRUB configuration and messed up the boot sector. Post the Gparted screenshot if possible.
