There are 2 entries listed in the bootloader
Default Microsoft Windows 7

Easybcd Boot Device c:\

Entry #1
Name Microsoft Windows 7 BCD ID : (Default)

Ah.

Yes, that would explain it. There are some cases where the BOOTMGR is out of date (usually when one upgrades from or dual-boots with Windows Vista).

Try EasyBCD | Install/Repair | Re-Create BCD Files
 
is there a way to fix it using easybcd? or should I just make my own windows 7 recovery disk and do a repair or will that not fix the problem either? can I update the BOOTMGR from easybcd.

Thanks

I could not get it to boot was using nti burning software finally decided to burn with imgburn and everything loaded without a hitch had to run the repair 2 times now everything is up and running great.
