problem with repair.

hi:)

finaly i upgraded my os from xp to windows 7 and everything works perfect, but (and there is always a but) , i wanted to see how the recovery options works just in case i will have problem in the future and i loged into the recovery tools and in the head of the recovery window , i am getting this:

Operating system: Unknown on (Unknown) Local Disk

now as i said the system works perfectly, i boot without problem , so why i get this messege?

i can't do system restore, can't do nothing but the dos console.

my systme is:
mb-DG33BU INTEL
c2d 6550
the system installed on caviar green wd 500gb hard drive with no partition's.

Try this:

SATA Drivers - Load in Windows Recovery Options

i used recover cd i downloaded from the internet, but it is the same with windows 7 dvd.

as far as i know there are no raid drivers for my motherboard:

so...whats next?

btw..didn't do startuo repair cause the system is ok, shell i test startup repair anyway?

ok:) wil try this and report.

ok, startup repair went well, but system restore not

i created restore point and when i tried to redtore it from the recovery tools i got this messege:

"to use system restore you must specify witch windows installation to restore"
"restart your pc and choose operating system and then restore it"...or something like that.

btw, i must say that the support is very fast and kind on this forum:)

.

Which one of those screens are geting?

well..my windows drive looks like active i mean when i do right click the option to active the partition is grey and not clickable so i guess it is active already and i can see on the drive it says boot,crash log,active (on the disk menagment.
now looks like c drive was not the first drive on the boot order so i made it first and now i will try the recovery stuff again, also will do the startup repair again.
