srs5694 Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Your question is both too vague and too detailed. There are many many many many posts, threads, and Web sites devoted to multi-booting OS X and Windows. Refer to them. If you have problems, post details about your problems, including what procedure you attempted to follow and what problems you're having. Your disk/partition list isn't particularly useful or informative (although it might be in the face of certain problems).

You have the Windows 7 HDD booting first. Change it to the MacOSX HDD in BIOS settings.

alex-nord-star Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 i tried but no success. i've installed EasyBCD and created an entry for Mac OS X and than the software requested me to get the boot.efi form Mac partition. i installed Mac Drive 8 , took the file and saved it as nst_mac.efi ( just as easyBCD erquested ). when i restarted my pc i saw to boot entries . 1. Windows 7 2. Mac OS X when i select Mac OS X it gives me an error . i think it says that it can;t find the nst_mac.efi file. any suggestions ?
