[QUOTE="ussnorway, post: 714523, member: 60912"] the active partition on a ntfs is the one the system boots to... it looks like this is the F drive which kicks in first and sends us to the C drive to look for Windows... I would unplug F and D drives so only the C and Dvd-rom remain then reinstall Windows because as it stands now something going wrong with F will make the system fail to boot I would also plug C drive into Disk 0 * which is always where Windows looks first and having it in Disk 1 spot makes things work slower than they need to ime * Windows 7 doesn't want to boot to D because 7 is an old system and D is the newer drive [/QUOTE]
