I am trying to rescue a damaged Windows7 here. Unfortunately, its boot record is corrupt (but its partition table is okay, only its boot code is bad).
I've put its hard disk into a working Windows Server 2008 system. Everything is ok, and visible on E:. But how to repair the MBR on the - now secondary - hard disk?
I've tried bcdedit, but it won't do anything with a secondary hard disk. I've also tried bootrec.exe
, but it can be found only on the windows7 repair disk and not in a win2008.
P.s.: I don' have cdrom drive in any of the machines, thus the windows7 startup repair disk had been also unfeasible.
