Bad Robot,
how do you get the 3 screens?. I use 2 for fsx & can not get in the 3rd I have.
When you boot to an Install DVD, it takes you to the install page, but on the left, there is a "Repair my Computer" type option. That will put you in the Recovery environment which you need to work your situation. From there, try some of those options.here it is.
The F8 on bootup gave the device priority, it showed my BENQ & booted the win8 in it & asked to install win8 which I had alook at it but do not remember the rest. In any case I do not want to ruin what I had. If that is the case I'll use EasyBCD to throw 8 out.
The option repair iwas same as I discribed before.
What make/model GPU are you using?
Thanx,
it looks very simple gadget, but will it work with the other screens or with FSX, & spread the cockpit around?
Does the mouse pointer crosses back & fro to the other screens?
Edit: On the attachment showing no drives found, could you explain how your hard drive is connected to your system? Do you have an add-in controller?
It's really hard to suggest something about your situation because you are in dual boot. If it's just Win 8 in your system, you could just go ahead and hit repair without worrying about the other OS installed in your hard drive. I guess this just proved my point that doing a dual boot on a single hard drive with the main OS can really be a big headache. I wish you luck and I hope someone who commented here before who had years of experience with dual boot on a single hard drive will come back and help you out because I don't dual boot on a single drive.
Cheers!
The request was to look in the C: directory from XP. The BCD file will be in the active directory, not the Windows 8 directory. It might be in a folder named Boot, but I do not have any MBR installs to check.Finally BCD
In win8's directory " I " many found in search as below, but do not show up in win explorer.
difficult to describe, please see attached.
