I want to be able to able to remove hd2 and boot from hd1 (see below for more info).
What steps should I do in order to accompish this? I get an error when I try to boot from hd2.
I can boot from all three, but can't boot from hd1 if hd2 is removed.

Orig: 1 HD (hd1), windows dual boot, Win7 32 and WinXP.
Added SSD Win7 64, windows multi boot.
Added another HD (hd2), Win7 64, windows multi.
Wiped SSD, physically removed.
Ran EasyBCD on hd1 Win7 32, removed SSD.
Physically disconnected hd1 and tried to boot hd2, no go, non-system disk error(huh???). Re hooked up hd2.
Installed and tried to run EasyBCD on hd1, errors (don't remember exact message).
