Windows 7: Restored DriveImage XML, Win 7 won't boot

My Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit OS got messed up so I restored the original image I made from DriveImage XML successfully. Now when my PC boots, I get the mobo splash screen and then just a cursor. When I put my Win 7 install disk in I can "press any key" to boot from it and the DVD goes right to where I can repair my installation. It sees my partition and when I use the cmd prompt using diskpart, I can see that the win 7 volume is c:\, active, and all my files are in the right spot. However when I look at the volume numbers, my c:\ is volume 2 and my DVD drives are volumes 1 & 2. So how do I change my c:\ drive to volume 0? I've read that this is how you set the c:\ to boot properly. If I'm wrong please correct me.

I'm not entirely certain this is the case with 7 but previously the volume was assigned depending on where it was plugged into the motherboard.
If I had to guess I would say your dvd drives are IDE and the Hard disk is SATA.
I have the same issue with my box. It doesn't seem to prevent it from booting at all.

Try just booting with the win 7 disc in and not hitting anything and see if windows loads then. If so it's a motherboard setting issue.

The Win 7 drive is a WD 500gb IDE. When I put this drive into any other PC, it does the same thing. Mobo splash or POST screen then just a cursor. I can't enter Safe Mode or anything except to put a disc in the DVD drive and boot from it. I tried fiddling with my mobo settings and they are normal. If I take my Win 7 drive out and put it as a slave or as a USB external drive, I can see everything and do whatever with the files.

Have you run the boot repair on it?
It would need to be plugged into the machine you intend to use it in for that.
Bootmgr is missing - Fix

Following the steps there will get you running that.
If nothing else it may at least name the error type for us if it can't repair it.

Wow, that worked. Thanks!!!!

no problem, always nice when a problem is solved on the first try.
