I had a power surge due to a blown transformer in the neighborhood. I got everything back up and working and lost no data, but had to replace one drive with unrepairable clusters. In the process, I can no longer boot to Windows 7 32 bit. Any attempt to do so displays the Windows 10 logo, goes to black with a little spinning circle and never boots anything up. My EasyBCD Overview still shows the settings that I had prior to the problem:
There are a total of 2 entries listed in the bootloader.
Default: Windows 10
Timeout: 10 seconds
EasyBCD Boot Device: D:\
Entry #1
Name: Windows 10
BCD ID: {current}
Drive: C:\
Bootloader Path: \WINDOWS\system32\winload.exe
Entry #2
Name: Microsoft Windows 7
BCD ID: {640e22a6-baf3-11e5-83db-ac9e17b6eca3}
Drive: W:\
Bootloader Path: \Windows\system32\winload.exe
Should I delete and start over or should I look for a problem with my Windows 7 drive? I did a Chkdsk on that drive and it didn't show any errors. Thanks for any help.
