Dual boot remove issue
Hi,
I have windows 7 and Vista installed, both ultimate and 64bit.
they are install on 2 seperate physical drives.
Vista was installed first about a year or so ago. i added a new drive and put windows 7 on it. i would like to remove the vista all together as i am happy with windows 7.
in disk manager when i look at both the drives they are showing up and both being active and primary. but the W7 is showing as the boot drive. i am not able to format the vista drive. the only options that are not greyed out are change drive letter and shrink volume.
I have been doing some research and i have tried this option
bootsect.exe /nt60 all /force
i have done it remotely and if it worked it should have rebooted the system and i should be able to remote to the system. i am unable to reach it now until i get home.
my question is why am i unable to format the vista drive in W7 and have i just screwed up my bootloader?
i will update what happened later but any info would be good.
