Windows 7 - Boot Drive Question
| |
| 08-12-2009 | #1 |
| | Boot Drive Question I recently installed Windows 7 x64 Retail (TechNet) on a 80Gb Intel SSD, with multiple other HDD's connected. It seems the Windows installer left some critical boot files on Drive D:\ (Windows is installed on drive C:\). When I try to hot swap the D:\ drive out it freezes windows, or won't allow Windows to boot without it being connected. I am wondering (aside from reinstalling Windows with no other HDD's present) if I can move those files, or run a command to have those files moved / redirected to the c:\ drive so I can hotswap the other drive out. |

| | Yes. Windows 7 will place some files on a separate volume when an SSD is the sys drive. My knowledge of this lacks specifics. |
