Win 7 tries to boot from the wrong HD / STOP Error 0x00000050
For some reason windows randomly decided not to boot from my C drive where I installed it, but for no reason whatsoever switched to my E drive. Both are 1TB internal HDDs.
This setup worked perfect for a week (I really just got a 2nd SATA cable and plugged in the 2nd HD which was instantly recognized properly by Windows).
In the BIOS I made sure windows booted from the wrong HD and now that it stopped workign I even tried the other (just in case I had made a mistake) but that changes nothing.
But then suddenly windows wouldn't boot anymore and tried to boot from E.
This problem fixed itself after a day, but now I got the aforementioned STOP error and it happened again.
I don't know if the STOP error caused it or if it was just the result of it.
I tried running the automatic repair tool but it did not work, opening the console from it was useless because it kept using X as drive name and I couldn't tell what drive it tried to use.
Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks!
