aateichman Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Hey all, First off, I just want to apologize in advance if this has been covered, but I have been searching and searching and cannot find a post relevant enough to get through my issue. Specs: Mac OS 10.10.3 CPU: Intel I5 4570S Mobo: Gigabyte Z87-HD3 GFX: nVidia GTX660 SSD: Kingston 64gb HDD: WD 1tb I installed Yosemite via #####, partitioning my SSD to Journaled/FAT32. Windows had problems due to the hybrid format diskutil assigned to my windows partition, so I fixed that in terminal and windows accepted the format for installation. Once windows was installed and running, I rebooted into OSx and installed Chameleon bootloader/##### DDST-free config. When I went to reboot back into windows, I got error 0xc000000e. I then tried to repair windows, to no avail, so I activated the windows partition via terminal. That allowed me to enter repair, but repair did not detect any errors. At the moment I am stuck with a working Yosemite and a Windows OS that wont boot. Any ideas? Let me know if you need any additional info. Thanks. EDIT: Just remembered this forum doesn't look highly upon tonymacx86. I apologize. You can delete this post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wegface Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 beware that the advice given on the tonymac forum is 99% completely wrong. Would be savvy to follow guides and methods from here before those tomatofaces lead you down an even more twisted garden path....

WaldMeister Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Hi, Can you open up a terminal window and type: diskutil list Then press: alt+shift+4, then space, click on the terminal window. Attach the screenshot on your desktop here. My guess is that the tools you have used, changed some flags on your startup partitions, perhaps even deleted some files. About Windows, what version?

WaldMeister Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Hi, If you click the more reply options, you can upload files and attach them to the post. I would take the SSD out of the system. Go into the bios and set it to boot from the Windows 7 HDD (Disk 1 in your case) Then boot from the DVD and use the repair options. Repairs should be made at that point and Windows should boot again. After that you can insert the SSD again, let the system boot from it so Chameleon will start, and you should be able to dual boot. If this failes, you could mount the EFI partitions as an example in terminal: mkdir /Volumes/EFI sudo mount -t msdos /dev/disk1s1 /Volumes/EFI Then navigate to the EFI drive to see what is stored on it, and adjust it if needed. But first try the above sollution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aateichman Posted June 3, 2015 Author Share Posted June 3, 2015 Just to clarify I am using the SSD for both W7 and OSx. Will windows still be able to repair if the SSD containing the OS files is not connected? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaldMeister Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 From what i can see, only OSX is installed on the SSD, Windows is on Disk1s3. Now if the Windows bootloader was on the SSD, then the chances are that the Windows bootfiles have been erased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
