How can I access my old Windows 7 RC partition?

Posted on

Problem :

After installing Windows 7 RTM, my computer now skips the boot selection screen and so I am unable to access my Windows 7 RC partition currently.

Is there any way to access it again?

This is not for access to files as I can already access them from the RTM partition.

Solution :

You might try EasyBCD

Using a live Linux CD like Ubuntu, you should be able to access any files and folders on your system, assuming that they haven’t been overwritten.

Assuming you are using Windows still:

XP: right click my computer > propereties > advanced tab > startup and recovery section > settings button and at the top you can select from the various OS installs.

Vista/7: Control panel > system and maintenance > system > left column advanced system settings > startup and recovery section > settings button and at the top you can select from the various OS installs
