Dual Boot Windows 10 with Windows 7 or Windows 8  

Gary said:

I have had Windows 7 installed since 2009. I installed Win 10 today on a partition on the same drive which is 90 some Gb's in size.

When it goes into auto repair thing try this http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials...up-repair.html or this

I can't get my dual boot configuration to work. It was working fine, until I put my Acer software back on. Can someone help me?

Gary said:

OK I did it according to the instructions and once again Windows 10 boots just fine and it shows as C;\ . The only problem is that I cannot boot into Windows 7. This , I cannot live with. Please if anyone has any suggestion I would apprecite it. If Not I will use the MR recovery Disk and go back to 7 until the final.n Two tries--same result.

Jesse, can you be more specific as to what "Acer software" you put back on? Check MSCONFIG (WIN key + R), and make sure the OS's you expect are there (under boot tab). Post back results and screenshot.

Ok here it comes:

Attachment 19228

Attachment 19229

Attachment 19230

Now when I select Windows 10 it goes there. When I select 7 it reboots and then goes to the automatic repair thing.

I do not see the System Reserved Partition at the beginning of the drive. He's got a roached MBR, etc.

Jesse,, have you executed diskmgmt.msc from the Run?? Press the windows button followed by R.. and enter that command. Then take a screen shot.
