Hello all,
Having spent most of the week trying to fix this by reading many forum entries I have to give up and ask a question.
I have a win10Home PC fully patched. Before I retired nearly 13yrs ago I used to regularly see businesses losing system availability. I therefore decided to clone my C: SSD to another identical SSD in the PC using EASEUS Partition Master and then some time in the past installed EasyBDC (currently 2.3) when on my ‘main’ C: drive to provide the menu. I regularly boot to my standby system using the handy Easybcd menu and run on that for the day to check all is well. So 2 good system disks.
Two weeks ago I closed down and removed the C: SSD to try it in a laptop. It was then that I noticed that I couldn’t boot from my standby disk, even having adjusted my Legacy BIOS in this 2011 PC. I was getting Error code 0x000000e which seems common on this forum. So my so called resilient system isn’t that good after all.
So to my question. If one creates the Easybcd menu on disk1 to be able to boot on either disk1 or disk2 and then disk1 fails , is there a standard procedure to be followed so that I can reboot on disk2 and keep my system running until such time as I can rebuild a replacement disk1?
Tried: winpe: Cant fix it it said. Also tried fixmbr cmds. No sign of fastboot. Tried other things I cant remember due to advancing years! Finally I put disk1 back in & confirmed I can dual boot as before. Thank you for any help
