Cannot boot after installing a hard drive with Windows
Hi,
Few days ago I installed a hard disk drive from a laptop with Windows installed to a desktop computer with Windows installed as well. I did so since I need to check the laptop HDD for viruses. After I removed the HDD, I could not boot to my desktop. How to fix this?
I have tried to use the Windows repair feature by using my installation DVD, but it didn't work. I kept getting a message saying something like the version of the Windows repair did not match with the version of the installed Windows on my desktop every time I tried to run the Windows repair.
For additional info, I use RAID 1 on my desktop which I set up by using Intel Rapid Storage Technology. The desktop runs Windows 7 Pro 64 bit while the laptop runs Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.
Thanks.
