Windows 7 Error Loading Operating System
I have a Windows 7 SP1 machine with
* C: 120GB SSD
* D: 2TB HD
* E: 500GB HD
All disks are truecrypt encrypted with D and E being system favorite volumes. Today I booted the machine and I got the dreaded Operating System not found error. I booted into the Truecrypt Rescue CD and tried to restore the boot loader. It failed. I then decided to decrypt the system drive, which succeeded after about an hour.
I then booted the machine and I get Error Loading Operating System.
So, I boot from the Windows 7 DVD and select Repair and go to the command prompt and do the following:
I also tried Startup Repair from the System Recovery Options dialog and it found a corrupt partition table on Disk 0, but says it repaired it. When I reboot, the machine doesn't find the operating system and Startup Repair finds the partition table to be corrupt again on the next boot. Here's a screenshotCode:X:\Sources>diskpart DISKPART> list disk Disk ### Status Size Free --------- ----------- -------- ------- Disk 0 Online 111 GB 0 B Disk 1 Online 1863 GB 1863 GB Disk 2 Online 465 GB 0 B DISKPART> select disk 0 Disk 0 is now the selected disk.

I'm not sure how to recover the boot sector of my SSD. Any ideas?
