I put a clean copy of Windows 7 on my Slave HDD but now I want to remove my primary.
The issue, as I understand it, is that the MBR is on the primary and when I take it out I therefore can't boot. To be clear, with only the Windows Seven HDD connected I cannot boot into windows but with my primary connected I can boot fine.
What I want to do is write a new MBR to the secondary hard disk after making it primary. To achieve this I boot off my Windows 7 disk and then run;
bootrec /RebuildBCD
bootrec /FixBoot
bootrec /FixMBR
But for the former two I get the following response;
Element not found
The drive that is connected definitely contains the Windows 7 install and is found by the RebuildBCD tool, when I confirm that I want it added I get the element not found exception. Has anyone else had this issue?
