Good morning all.

Recently I upgraded my bootloader from Chimera to Clover. After much fiddling and faffing around I managed to mangle Clover enough to get my Customac upgraded to Yosemite. I'm now about to start fixing the iMessage issue.

However, wanting to chill out I tried to boot up Windows 7 for a quick blast on MWO, only to find that when I selected the Windows partition I was greeted with a blinking underscore cursor and nothing else for a good half an hour. The only option is to power off the computer and reboot. Every time I select the Windows partition, I get the same thing.

I have absolutely no idea what's going on or how to fix it. Advice needed, please.

**Edit** Additional information.

BIOS set to boot from UEFI as primary boot option.
No flags set on boot to either OSX or Windows.
Clover r2976 installed over Chimera.
I have about 6 configurations in Clover Configurator.

If Windows is installed Legacy, it will not boot from UEFI. Make BIOS settings CSM enabled, Legacy and UEFI enabled.
