R_M_F Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 When you installed OS X the disk changed to guid and the windows partitions got deleted. In this type of scenario you can only install windows after OS X Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/150995-deleted/#findComment-1066837 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mardig Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 I too am looking for dual booting support for Windows 7 EFI 64 bit booting. Here is my configuration: Dell D630 Laptop, One Hard Disk 3 Partitions Partition 1: 200MB EFI Partition created by Windows 7 Partition 2: 150GB Partition, Windows 7 64 bit Partition 3: 90GB GUID Partition, Mac OSX 10.5.6 with EFI v9 and stock kernal, imaged from another hard drive The Hard disk currently boots Windows 7 64 bit via the 200MB EFI partition. I would like to use the Windows 7 boot loader to handle the dual booting and add the Mac OSX partition as a second choice. I'm not sure if EasyBCD 2.0 can modify the hidden boot loader on the hidden 200MB EFI partition. Does anyone know how to setup this dual boot scenario? Thanks in advance for your thoughts and help on this setup. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/150995-deleted/#findComment-1068511 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Hurt Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Sorry if this question seems stupid but I'm really interested as to know if windows 7 will support GPT on non-efi systems!! So, did windows 7 install to the GPT partition without sync with MBR?

Aranius Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 My Vista did that already, but i think my Mainboard sort of "fakes" an EFI-boot for Windows Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/150995-deleted/#findComment-1079299 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aranius Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Well, as FAT32, true... but my Bios has the option to "attempt Legacyboot" which will try EFIboot first when turned off Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/150995-deleted/#findComment-1079654 Share on other sites More sharing options...
