    Default How to reinstate missing bootloader entry

    My machine was successfully dual booting Vista and Windows 7. Until in a *stupid* moment I deleted the boot loader entry for Vista. So the machine boots to Windows 7 fine, and the Vista installation itself is fine, but I just can't boot it. Any tips as to how to recover from this situation ? It was a pretty clean Vista install, so I could just re-install as a last resort, but if there is an easier way I'd take it

    EasyBCD 2.0 latest build / Add New Entry / Windows Tab / Vista/7 dropdown.
    Point it to the Vista drive letter as seen from W7.

    Ah, I think that was my mistake. I did carry out this procedure, but did not specify D: as it was seen by W7. Once I've had a change to try agai, I'll report back. Thanks for the reply.
