Default Dual Boot Ubuntu Linux and Vista Now Any OS Does Not Load!

Hey guys, this me writing from my desktop computer.
My recently F**KED up my laptop, I had installed ubuntu on a vista machine. (I decided to dual boot, vista installed first)
The installation went all fine, until restart, the laptop didn't let me choose my boot OS, it directly booted into vista.
So to change things, I did some research then found a software called "easyBCD".
I had started playing around with it, to find the best options.
This is where I F**KED it all up, I did something wrong and when I restarted the machine, it came up with 2 boot options:

1) Neogrub Bootloader - When I pick this option, it tells me to repair windows with the installation CD (THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE FOR ME BECAUSE VISTA WAS PREINSTALLED, AND DIDN'T COME WITH A CD).

2) Linux Ubuntu - When I pick this option, it tells me that I have told the bootloader the wrong partition for my Linux OS.

I DO NOT HAVE AN OPTION TO LOAD VISTA, WHY?!

PLEASE HELP
