Hello all,
a few years back, I built a Sandy Bridge dual boot hackintosh with MultiBeast boot loader. Win7 and OSX were installed on two same sized partitions on a 128gb SSD.
Since I was not using OSX anymore, I deleted the mac partition on my SSD. Only to figure out later that this of course contained the boot loader. When starting up the computer from a Win7 installation disk, it crashes with some "I/O" error (I disconnect all other devices and only 4gb RAM).
Further, the SSD is not readable when connected to another PC as external drive (which I tried in order to backup Win7 data before a possible re-install of Win7).
Can anyone help?
Whats my best course of action to get the Win7 partition up and running again? Or at least to access it?
Thanks a lot!
Daniel
