Hi there I'm having a serious problem with my computer
I had windows 7 and windows xp both installed on separate partitions and would dual boot between the two (I would get a menu at boot-up). Last night I deleted the windows xp partition because I no longer used that OS so though I would get rid of it.
When I rebooted my windows 7 isn't detected. I put in the win7 install disc and ran the repair wizard (even though it detected to OS installed). It said there was no system partition and said it repaired the problem but it was still the same.
So I created another small partition thinking that if i installed another win7 it would find the other installation and give me a boot menu to choose between the two. But when I try to pick the partition to install to in the win7 setup it says that it can neither find nor create a system partition
I don't know what to do, can someone help please?
EDIT: I don't want to install another win7, I want to boot into the installation already on my computer.
Thanks
