re-install windows 7 on disk 2

Post by jahroud »

Hi, I have 2 installations of windows 7 64 bits on 2 separate drives (disk 0 and disk1). I have to re-install windows 7 on disk 1, is it possible to do it with Bootit BM without disabling disk 0? Thanks

thanks but it doesn't work!... I followed exactly every point. 1) fomated disk 1 : 2) in boot edit created boot on HD1, enabled swap / hide all partitions on disk 0 ... I tried enabling or disabling BIOS Sequence or Boot Next Device (one enabled or nothing enabled) I tried "Alt+S" or Alt+N) in every case, I tried the "fix swap option but no success, can't boot on cd after booting on drive 1. I always get "missing operating system" message... All I can do is boot on windows 7 dvd from the start (before bootit) What's wrong??

finally the only way for me was to disconnect disk 0 (as I always did)..
