Win 10 TP messed up my win 7 need advice on where i'm at.
Hi everyone:
So here is my issue, I was using win 10 tp in vmware just fine and wanted to try it on my physical hardware. so I made a usb of the TP and shutdown and put a hdd in my pc for it. told it to install to that disk and it installed fine then rebooted and i got a startup error saying winload was not same version as os and i was like that's weird. Well turns out my hdd installed to was on my non intel controller and so it installed its bootmanger on my ssd (its what i get for not unplugging it) and now my startup for 7 is hosed. I am trying to get a iso i can use to make a usb or 7 sp1 but my only current iso was of a non sp1 so it will not work to repairwith. I made a repair disk with the sp1 pc downstairs but it loads up saying a device is keeping it from connecting with the pc its error e9c i believe. I tried to get a digital river download of the os to then repair with but now microsoft implements this site Microsoft Software Recovery and that would be fine except that all my keys are in a word document on a raid array that I can no longer access till it is in windows. Can win pe see windows mirrored disk's? Also my 7 other pc's key on that site says its oem so they wont get me an iso. any help or advice would be appreciated. And yes I have tried t restore from a backup can't find them, this is another whole issue for me at this point that must be resolved. If i can get a bootable anything to see the mirrored disks i can open my key file on my laptop. thanks again.
