EMERGENCY!!!

[Eltee]

I was using easybcd to try and dual boot win 8 and 7. Everything was going perfectly until i restarted my computer. Now it powers on but does not boot at all. I really need help. I have an exam tomorrow to study for and i can't focus on anything else right now.

My computer is an hp p7-1418.

I was following the tutorial in this video on how to dual boot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QatkOEUjFCA

What did you do in EasyBCD?

I added a new entry. I was following the instructions from this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QatkOEUjFCA

I must have screwed up something somewhere. I'll take the blame for that. I just really need my PC running.

We didn't author that video and can't vouch for it. Follow these instructions: Recovering the Windows Bootloader from the DVD - EasyBCD - NeoSmart Technologies Wiki

When there is a boot problem you can downoad the SuperGrub LiveCD ISO and burn it to disk. Boot computer from optical drive (CD) and Grub boot loader will show bootable partions on drive(s). That will allow you to get back into one of your Windows in an emergency, If Windows are completely gone (not your case), then download and burn Ubuntu LIveCD and boot Linux into memory. It will give you access to your HDD files until you resolve the problem.
