I add new entries but they do not appear in the boot loader!, if I try to do a simple copy thing with bcdedit and I open the msconfig I see the new entries...but when I add new entries through EasyBCD they do not work! even if easybcd says they are succesfully added they are not!
help please? what's wrong with easybcd?
Easybcd works perfectly fine. Walk us through what you're doing with some pics so we can figure out.
-> Installed a windows 8 installation partition with easybcd
-> I installed windows 8 in dual boot
-> fancy bootloader
-> removed installation partition entry (it was already empty)
-> the fancy bootloader is gone (wtf?)
-> there is the normal bootloader (ok...)
-> windows 8 entry does not work (whatever I will reinstall it...)
-> windows 7 entry does work (Ok lets recreate a new windows 8 installation partition)
-> removed windows 8 entry
-> tried to add a new installation partition entry thrgouh easy bcd
-> new entries does not show up at boot loading time and neither in msconfig (wtf...)
-> tried fixboot fixmbr, automatic repair through windows 7 recovery disk...I always got the same bootloader with only 1 entry in (Windows 7) .
Adding new entries through BCDEDIT works! but I don't know how to create entries for installation partitions so I need easy bcd. How to fix this?
I'm unable to follow a word of what you posted. Paste your easybcd boot menu entries and the exact contents of your actual boot menu here. A snip of your disk management window showing the different partitions and a description of what you have installed on them right now will help.

bootrec fixed it and eastbcd is working again.
