SOLVED -Cant boot into Win 7

[Macsure]

Me again

Ok one last bug I then I will be happy to up date to lion:

Bootloading: when I for up my build I get to the option menu ("Instant Menu"=Yes")

This gives me 3 icons, Snow Leopard, windows reserve and windows 7

I have to separate HHD 1: with SL on it Second one with Win7 on it.

When I click on Snow leopard it load SL
When I click on Windows 7 it tell I am missing a bootmrg
When I click on Win Reserve it starts to load, as in the win 7 loading logo appears,
At this stage I get exceited thinking and minute win7 will apppear
But then a flash of the famous blue screen appears, on for about a 0.5 sec
Then it reverts back to the screen when you 1st turn your build on

What I have tried so far:

Changed my start up in Bios to 1: HDD 2: HDD 3. CD Rom
I disconnected my SL hard and run Windows 7 works perfectly.
Reinstalled Cinmera from the download section.
Run "repair Permissions" in Disk Utility
Run Ktext Utility

Scream at my system
Washed the cat to relase my frustration

Does anyone have any other suggestions Please

Re: Cant boot into Win 7

System Reserve is the partition you have to choose to boot Windows.

Most likely, AHCI isn't enabled on Windows, so it can't boot. Go to your BIOS and change AHCI mode to SATA mode or IDE mode. Then you should be able to boot Windows. Once you've boot Windows, enable AHCI mode on there with this fix. Once done, reboot your computer, go to the BIOS, and change SATA/IDE mode back to AHCI mode. Now you should be able to boot both OS X and Windows.
