No Boot Partition
Hi, I initially installed Windows 7 Pro 64-bit along side my Windows XP 64 bit on two seperate hard drives. What I'm trying to do is remove the drive that had XP on it and put it in my other system to do a fresh Raid 0 Windows 7 setup. But when I remove the XP drive, it wont boot into Windows 7. I'm fairly sure that Windows 7 rewrote the XP bootsector and so without that drive it wont boot. Can I recreate it on the Windows 7 drive?
I've tried the recovery stuff on the DVD, including all the command line tricks in the tutorials. When I go into the recovery mode, it doesn't even see my Windows 7 installation. However, in Command Prompt mode, i can browse into the hard drive, and see all the windows files.
What can I do without a fresh install?
