Changing Vista Bootloader Location

[aliwoo]

Hello All,

I'm new to this forum and have a question straight away for all you wizzkids to mull over please.

My hard disc was on its last legs and i got a replacement HDD to install my Vista OS onto. I chose to run the install from within windows on the old HDD. It all installed fine but now the bootloader file is location on my old C: partition and i can't now remove my old HDD because that is where the boot information is.

Do any of you guys know how to move the bootloader to my new system partition so i can remove my old HDD?

Yes

Remove (unplug) the old drive
Boot from your Vista disc, from starting the computer with the disc in the drive

Run a repair

Once confirmed working, then plug the old harddrive back in.
