I have the same error while using beta 99 however, when I use beta 88 I get the following

BCDError2.jpg

I have installed Windows 7 Ultimate in a VHD and the drive letter for the Bootdisk/System Disk (XP) is removed..

However both versions of EasyBCD work when I give a drive letter to system partition.
 
Hi rmittal,

Thanks for your bug report.

Can you please post the output of "bcdedit.exe" from an elevated command-prompt?

2.0 is almost set for release, so I would appreciate if you could reply ASAP.
 
OK, I'll check now and see if I can fix the crash.

Addendum:

Terry, it's a known issue for Windows and bcdedit to break down with that error message, EasyBCD still works via manual selection. It definitely shouldn't crash, though.

There's no problem per se with the RC not finding the BCD, (my config tests that aspect of every new build), so I thought it might be relevant to see what about this config crashes the app.
(I removed the letter from my "active" "non-system" partition as a test. Easy is still fine)
 
I have no drive letter on my hidden partition as well, but I had forgotten that you get that dialog on each system start.

/testing.....


aaaand you're right. That's not the problem. EasyBCD handles that error gracefully enough.


Addendum:


Oh wait.

rmittal, please delete this folder and see if the error goes away:
C:\Users\Your User Name\AppData\Local\NeoSmart_Technologies

@Computer Guru
deleting the folder "C:\Users\my User Name\AppData\Local\NeoSmart_Technologies"
did not change anything.

I once again want to inform that if I give a drive letter to my Boot/system disk all works without any problem.
 
Select "Change Boot Drive" and choose "Drive D:" as the new destination.
Once that's done, go to "Add Entries" and add a Windows XP and a Windows 7 entry.

IF that doesn't work:

Select "Change Boot Drive" and choose "Drive C:" as the new destination.
Once that's done, go to "Add Entries" and add a *Windows 7 entry only.*
Enter the BIOS and swap the order of drive 0 and drive 1 (or physically do so with the cables)
Boot back into 7, use EasyBCD to add a Windows XP entry now.
Reboot and test.

Pardon, but is it relevent to my post, I am unable to follow you.
 
Oh god.. sorry, wrong thread!

Addendum:

For your problem: I'll send you build that can generate a crash dump that I can use to trace the issue.

@rmittal: Found the problem. Can you please provide the output of "bootgrabber.exe /tlist" from the command line? BootGrabber.exe is found in C:\Program Files\NeoSmart Technologies\EasyBCD\bin\

@Tricky Dicky: Well, build 100 is the latest build of "Release Candidate" quality. There are builds 101, 102, and now 103 floating around the forums that each address specific issues for certain users. When these issues are resolved for sure, I will release RC2. And when an RC is out with no issues, I will release EasyBCD 2.0 Final.

Can you replace bootgrabber with this one and try again?

IF it still crashes, please post the output of BootGrabber.exe /tlist once more.

Thanks :smile:

OK. So if I want to use it now, the 100 is the right way to go .. right?
