you don't need to reinstall linux or windows
you probably had Grub on the /boot directory and not the MBR. When it asks, install to the MBR, it won't mess anything up, I promise. and if in the future, you wish to go back to only windows, the windows rescue thing can rewrite the windows MBR. Otherwise, you have to have the /boot partition as a primary partition, and you must make that the active boot partition within partition manager, which even that doesn't work sometimes cause windows is a pain and likes to make itself the primary boot.
