Installing W10 on an MBR Win7 Machine
Installing W10 on an MBR Win7 Machine
I'm going to try Win10 so I hope you guys can point me to an article here to install Win10 on a MBR drive that already has Win7. I read one KB about making them boot independently which is great since I still want to use BIBM as my boot manager. I have the Win10 USB key to install from. Thanks for your help!

plain,
See page 74 in the BIBM user manual.
There are some videos on...

... written for BING but the same principles apply.

Okay Thanks Brian. So I got Windows 10 installed and when BIBM tried to boot it from the boot menu I get the message... "The configured boot partition was not recognized." . If I use Direct Boot I can boot the partition. I will have to investigate further. Thanks for your reply.

plain,
In your Boot Item, what is in the Boot field?
Do you have a System Reserved partition on the HD?

Doh! I didn't specify in the Boot Field! Thanks for your patience. BIBM and the rest of the TeraByte stuff works so well, I forget sometimes how to find my mistakes since I rarely change anything.

So, all OK now?
