once the image is attached is it possible to boot it within win7 or do you still need another prog to do that

hi im trying to use that now all operations complete successfully and bcdedit shows that its worked but it just keeps booting win7

it could be becuse of my boot config that it wont work

i have 1.5 gig active boot partion then 50gig partitions for operating systems
xp32 / vista32 /vista64/ win7-32/ win7-64

Does it show up at boot to select the OS (VHD)?

Boot Partition - Default - Vista Forums

 

[chinga69]

yes i get that option but all it does is boot win7-64 bit

 

[chinga69]

its probably because my win7 64 bit is actually x: drive not c: drive when i boot in to it
have to try some more tomorrow

cheers brad

Hello Brad,

This is a PM I got from Steven on this. It looks like it is not stable yet in Windows 7.

Its a hit and miss using vhd booting at the moment, I figured out that its nearly impossible to configure the vhd correctly to boot with windows 7 at the moment..I guess the public beta will have a more stable and better support for this

yes i just redone my puter.
after attaching the vhd images from my backup image i tried to restore my puter because everything went to crap in the morning i got an error message the backup image was corrupt and could not be installed lucky i had my partion images in ghost backup as well

cheers brad
