Getting “Invalid Partition Table†after installing 16.04 LTS on Windows 10 laptop

Greeting from Vietnam. I'm totally new with Linux, but really want to start learning.
My first try was installing Ubuntu 16.04 LTS on my W10 laptop. I followed instructions on the Internet and successfully installed the Ubuntu and really got excited
But when I tried to restart the machine, then it does not allow me to directly boot to either Windows or Ubuntu. All I got is always the message "Invalid Partition Table".
To proceed further, I have to choose try Ubuntu (after choosing to boot from the USB), or press F12 (for Dell laptop - in my case) and choose Windows Boot Manager.
After searching for several solutions on the Internet, I came up with the GParted table as below (I could not insert the picture as a new registration)
/dev/sda6 (w/ key icon) ----- linux-swap ----- (no flag)
/dev/sda7 ----- ext4 ----- (no flag)
/dev/sda8 ----- unkown ----- bios_grub
So anyone please can help to solve my problem?
Many thanks for any help!
