Yosemite and Windows 10 on seperate drives

Hi guys,

First of all sorry if this has been done to death... I have as mentioned Yosemite and Windows 10 on seperate SSD's that I want to house in the same machine. Both installs are for the same hardware but were created independently with the other system drive removed.

Yosemite is installed using Multibeast method and Windows 10 using the downloadable installer rather than an upgrade.

When I place the drives in the machine together with the Yosemite drive as the primary boot device Windows appears on the Loader screen and can be selected but Windows fails with an error stating that the loader is missing (can't remember it off the top of my head because I'm at work right now).

Is there something I need to do to the loader from Multibeast to make this work?

Any help would be really appreciated.

Hardware is Gigabyte GA97-H3D, i5 and onboard HD video and sound

What is boot loader?
What Windows icons do you see at the Clover selection screen?

If using Chimera, Windows should have 2 icons - System Reserved and NTFS - boot from System Reserved.
If Windows has 4 or more icons, boot from the icon that says Boot Windows EFI from EFI.

When I get home I will check the specific details and post them

What I do know is that for Windows there is only one drive showing.

Boot Windows, click start, type msinfo32 and hit enter. Post pic of resulting window.

Hi, did you ever get this worked out, I'm set up the same as you and just finished a clean install of Windows 10 to a separate SSD and I cannot get Windows 10 to show when booting up.

Determine if you installed Win10 UEFI mode or Legacy mode.

If you installed Clover UEFI mode for booting OS X and Windows Legacy mode you have a choice:
Reinstall Windows UEFI mode - easiest if you just installed Win10.
Or, remove the EFI folder from the EFI partition of your OS X drive and install Clover Legacy mode.

Which one you decide on is up to you.

I went into the BIOS to check some settings, then after exit/save, the Windows 10 drive mysteriously showed up. Thanks for your suggestion and help.
