I have a drive with many partitions. Vista is installed on the first partition. The second is a data storage partition. The third partition has an XP install. I installed EasyBCD 1.7 and had a dual booting system that worked just fine.
Then I decided to hide my Vista partition from XP, using the instructions I found here.
But I made a mistake. I must have told Neogrub to hide the wrong partition. At first it hid the data storage partition. So I went back in to the configuration text file, and changed it to the Vista partition. But when I rebooted, both the Vista and the data storage partitions were hidden.
And then I couldn't boot into Vista.
I thought that by deleting Neogrub, I could get back in to Vista. But now I can't boot into either! The Vista install disk is no help either, it can recognize a Vista install on the first partition, but it can't repair the boot.
Is there anything at all I can do to fix this? I can always reformat and reinstall, but that is many hours of work at this point.
Can anyone help?!
