    C and E are just drive letters!! They are defined in current registry of running OS. Can differ if you boot another OS.

    But how did you fix the bootmenu? I can only give instructions if I know whta you're doing!

    in bcd.txt I see:
    • win8 is in it
    • recovery environment (repair computer using f8) is in it. bu recovery is not enabled
    Start again startup repair (it works now I hope). Do it 3 times with boots in between. Be sure to select win7 ultimate to recover. Works?

    Reboot normal afterwards and regenerate bcd.txt and post it

    recovery environment f8 is not working!! But we can fix it easy


    delete win8 from boot menu
    Code:
    bcdedit/delete {d8e7c184-3b28-11e2-a4a1-a1e141ded738}
    disable recovery environment (F8 recovery)
    Code:
    reagentc/disable
    unused recovery stuff
    Code:
     
    bcdedit/delete {d8e7c186-3b28-11e2-a4a1-a1e141ded738}
    bcdedit/delete {d8e7c187-3b28-11e2-a4a1-a1e141ded738}
    enable recovery environment (F8 recovery)
    Code:
    reagentc/enable
    Post output
    regenerate bcd.txt again
