Well i have a new problem, and i hope you guys can help me out.
I got tired of vista, and decided to get windows 7 RC.
So i downloaded and this morning formated the HD that had vista.
And installed Windows 7 on it.
When i turn on my pc there are 3 things to chose from
Older Version of windows “XP”
Windows 7
Microsoft Windows Vista
When i chose windows 7 or windows vista just black screen and nothing…. Help??
BTW i have 2 HD’s, my main one, XP, and my other 40 gb for testing OS’s (with Windows 7 that doesnt boot right now)
do this:
boot with your windows XP CD
goto recovery console (hit ‘r’)
type “fixmbr” then hit enter
then type “fixboot c:” then hit enter
restart your computer; it SHOULD boot right into windows XP
now in my computer, right click your d drive and format
put in your windows 7 disc, setup launches, choose “custom” installation (i think thats all you can do) and tell it to install on d drive, and install windows 7 like normal
when you are all done you should get a boot loader with 2 options: “Windows 7 Ultimate” and “Previous Version of Windows”
enjoy
