    I would do a clean install with only one drive hooked up. That way every thing that should be on one drive to boot and run your operating system will be there. Then I would hood up the other drive and do a one pass wipe so it is clean and will not argue with the other drive. When your done Windows 7 and the System Reserve is on one drive as it should be and the second drive is there and clean for your storage.

    Thanks for the help people, i opted for the easy solution and found my C: and formatted it, and unplugged the Backup of music, software, games etc, and Re-installed windows, deleted the partition 'boot' from the wrong drive and made a system image of my C: with everything on, Thankyou for the help, and rep on its way!
