Win 7 Pro 64 bit Dual Boot with two SSDs
I went hastily into this project and built the system using 2 SSD 1TB drives and a 3TB standard HD for storage. The intent is to have the two bootable drives both with Win 7 Pro 64 but configured for two different telescope imaging systems sharing a single mount. Both imaging systems have very different hardware settings in their needed programs hence the dual boot theory. After the first had the OS and programs installed I cloned to the other SSD.
What happened was I didn't pay attention to the drive setup and they are both set to GPT instead of MBR and the motherboard uses UEFI. So I downloaded EasyBCD and iReboot just like I did with a similar system back in 2011 thinking I'd replicate the process on the replacement system. Up until I ran into this which became apparent when I started EasyBCD. So now I'm looking for a way to not have to reload Windows 7 and all the astronomy programs from scratch and start all over.
Any thoughts on this would be very welcomed. Maybe there are other programs I could use or I'm plain out of luck. The motherboard I'm using is a Gigabyte Z170X-Gaming7.
Thanks,
Steve
