Personally, I use a true "bit by bit" copy of a drive when cloning.
#Bootrec not found windows
Unfortunately, Windows can be very "finicky" about hardware changes, and you may have an issue with the UUID of a different drive being stored now. Note that I'd make sure that any other drives are disconnected when using those types of utilities, as having more than one drive connected may have led to some of your issues. Hopefully we can find some way to get it to Boot. It appears I have "Struck Out" on all counts with no changes to be able to Boot. I believe the D:\Windows was using D since the system was in the Booted status using the Win 7 original OS DVD. Total identified Windows Installations: 1 - D:\Windows - Add installation to Boot List : - Y N A (for Yes, No, All) and I entered Y - It displayed Element Not Found. I also used these additional parts in the document:īootrec.exe /FixBoot - and displayed Element not foundīootrec.exe /RebuildBcd - and it displayed:
It is unfortunate that I didn't find anything that cured the Boot Problem. See above: I will refer to the following linked article before running the two above programs. Make sure all other drives are disconnected when using those types of recovery procedures to make sure you're working with the correct drive. I run and message was - Element not found. I run this and the display indicated it - Completed Successfully.
IOW, boot into a Windows DVD, get to a command prompt via the repair options, and run both of these commands: I have not used the Command Prompt and run the mentioned programs - for which I will do next. Also, I tried the other option for Repairing but no luck either. I have only used the method for Booting from Win 7 DVD and trying to use the normal System Restore that I made 09-02-2014 but that method required selecting the Boot Drive which does not show up since Win 7 (DVD) does not find it as a Boot Drive now. I learned (the hard way) a few years ago to do this. I Disconnected ALL other hard Drives - when attempting to Repair the BAD Boot Drive. I may be able to copy the *.PST file that contains all Emails Sent, Received, Deleted, etc - from the Non Bootable drive - but I am not concerned regarding the few lost Emails.
#Bootrec not found software
NOTE: I restored a Macrium image Backup for 09-02-2014 to a different Hard Drive and I only lost a few Emails (sent and received) since the email software uses the C Boot Drive with no choice to use a different drive - and now using this drive as the current Win 7 Boot Drive. I tried the various indicated methods to Repair the original Boot Drive with NO success.ĭid you try to use bootrec.exe with both the /FixMbr and /FixBoot options? Then, I shut down and disconnected the 07-28 drive and (again) selected the original Win 7 Boot Drive in BIOS and tried to Boot using this original Boot Drive - however, it would not boot and displayed the screen indicating to Boot from the original DVD Media for Win 7.
