Scroll down and read my update please

I have Windows 7 and 8.1 installed and i want to install ubuntu.

My windows 7 is 32bit, windows 8.1 is 64bit(my printer driver is not released on 64bit, but my job requires 64bit). I want to tripleboot 3OS-es. My downloaded ubuntu is amd64.

Installed Ubuntu 14.04

Wanted to disable GRUB(Windows Recovery Environment(on/dev1/sda) to boot windows 7/8;
or Ubuntu to boot to Ubuntu)

I tried EasyBCD:

i open EasyBCD clicked on 'add new entry'

Chose Linux and chose GRUB and GRUB2

clicked on 'BCD Deployment' chose ...vista/7... and 'Write MBR'

Rebooted

GRUB was not showing (Gone to the windows boot recovery)BUT........

There were showing only windows 7/8.1

How to make 3 booting scenes in the 'boot recovery

Update: Made 3 booting scenes but when i choose Ubuntu it goes into black screen and says failed to load kernel what to do?

While some people have had success adding Linux using tools such as EasyBCD, this has never worked for me. I recommend using grub as your boot loader.

If you're willing to try grub, which should give you a menu at startup to choose between the 3 OS, boot Ubuntu from your Live Media and try using boot-repair.
