Hi guys I've done my own research on this but I'm still stuck!
Something in my computer is failing or has failed but at the moment I'm trying to solve this particular issue:
My setup:
C drive (64GB SSD connected through SATA - windows 7 installed)
D drive (normal 500gb drive connected through SATA - used for storage)
E drive (old 60GB drive connected through IDE - used for storage and p2p)
I unplugged my e drive but now windows wont load! I understand this may have somethign to do with when i first installed windows to C drive it leaves some files on another drive, so this makes sense when I see that when the pc boots up e drive is first in the boot order.. very odd but anyway how do I get my pc to boot with C (which is where the os is loaded) without E being in the picture!? I need to bottom this out as now my pc wont boot to windows at all because of an i/o error - I think there is a good chance that this is because the E drive failing? There should be no reason why my pc needs E drive to be there!
I tried putting the windows install disk in booting to that then running disk repair, but I don't get anywhere.
Any ideas?
Regards
