I have reported in a separate thread that after I moved from Disk Director 10 to Disk Director 11 on Windows Vista that OSS Selector could no longer find Windows 7 to boot in its separate partition. This was working in DD10 but not in DD11. I then decided to look at the root folder of both partitions since I can temporarily make the Windows 7 NTFS partition a separate drive under Windows Vista.What I noticed is that Windows Vista has:hiberfil.syspagefile.sysbootmgrWindows 7 has:hiberfile.syspagefile.sysbut no bootmgr file. Does Windows 7 not use a bootmgr file?I know that I successfully installed Windows 7 in a separate partition from Windows Vista. I know that OSS Selector in Disk Director 10 was able to find and boot Windows 7. How was it able to do this?

I did not remove any file from the Windows 7 root directory. Yet now OSS Selector says that 'No new operating system is found in specified partition' and indeed there is no bootmgr file in that partition, if that is indeed what OSS Selector is looking for, and I did not remove any file.Can anybody who can clarify how Windows 7 boots and is recognized as a bootable operating system by OSS Selector? Windows 7 uses the same booting files as Vista: bootmgr and the boot folder and its contentsDD 10 does not normally automatically find Windows 7. There must have been something different with your setup or your files for it to do so.

Perhaps it was using Vista's files.I assume you had enabled viewing of hidden and system files when you were looking for the booting files. It's possible that Windows 7 is booting from the Vista partition. Boot into Windows 7 and look at Disk Management. Does the Windows 7 drive show as System and Active? If not, which partition does?DD 11 should find Windows 7 if the booting files are normal/standard for Windows 7.It may help if you post a screenshot of what Disk Management shows and also attach a copy of the BOOTWIZ.OSS file.

DD 10 does not normally automatically find Windows 7. There must have been something different with your setup or your files for it to do so. Perhaps it was using Vista's files.On my machine DD10 did automatically find Windows 7 and even identified it as such, without any manual changes to the BOOTWIZ.OSS file. I read about others having problems and was quite thankful I did not and did not have to manually do anything with the BOOTWIZ.OSS file per your instructions in another post.

Once I installed DD11, and subsequently OSS Selector for DD11, no Windows 7 is ever found even though I have not changed anything regarding the Windows 7. I assume you had enabled viewing of hidden and system files when you were looking for the booting files. It's possible that Windows 7 is booting from the Vista partition. Boot into Windows 7 and look at Disk Management.

Does the Windows 7 drive show as System and Active? If not, which partition does?I do not think I would be able to see the operating system files on Vista if I had not enabled viewing of hidden or system files. I can not boot into Windows 7, which is the entire point of this and my other post. DD 11 should find Windows 7 if the booting files are normal/standard for Windows 7.It may help if you post a screenshot of what Disk Management shows and also attach a copy of the BOOTWIZ.OSS file.Evidently the booting files for Windows 7 are not the normal/standard for Windows 7. But Windows 7 did boot and run properly under DD10 and now can not be found under DD11.I will post a copy of my current bootwiz.oss in my next reply. While I can also post a screen shot of Disk Management under Vista also, it simply shows that the Windows 7 partition is an NTFS Healthy Primary Partition. Here is a modified BOOTWIZ.OSS file.

If you have a Windows 7 DVD which you can use to do a boot repair, I would proceed as follows:. Replace the existing BOOTWIZ.OSS file with the attached file. Start OSS and verify the entry has been added. Edit the properties of the Windows 7 entry and make sure all other Windows partitions are hidden. Android gps conf file. Using OSS, try to boot into the Windows 7 entry. You should get an error because bootmgr is missing.

While still on the error screen, insert the Windows 7 DVD and reboot/reset to it. The main thing here is to boot to the Windows 7 DVD while the drive is configured for booting Windows 7 (Windows 7 partition Active, other Windows partitions hidden). Select Repair Mode and do the automated repair. Reboot and repeat the automated repair. This is necessary because all repairs are not made on the first pass.

After the second pass, the booting files should be restored and Windows 7 should boot normally. You may need to reactivate OSS. Here is a modified BOOTWIZ.OSS file. If you have a Windows 7 DVD which you can use to do a boot repair, I would proceed as follows:.

You may need to reactivate OSSThanks for the updated BOOTWIZ.OSS and the instructions.I would love to try this but since there is no way to reactivate OSS once Windows 7 takes over the MBR as it always does, except re-install DD11 under Windows 7, I can not do this. While I can temporarily live with the loss of Windows 7, almost all my current work is under Windows Vista, and I can not live with the loss of Windows Vista in case OSS messes up again and can not boot Windows Vista. If I was assured that OSS could be reactivated at any time from a bootup CD, I would not be afraid to re-install anything which might replace OSS in the MBR.OSS worked fine in DD10.

It does not work in this case in DD11, and also can not reactivate itself in the MBR upon boot, so I will unfortunately be looking for another multi-boot product. I really do not understand when a product gets worse from one release to another in this way. The main problem here is that Acronis originally had removed OSS from DD 11 (OSS was to be discontinued). Due to many user requests during the beta period, Acronis reversed that and added it back. However, it was too late in the DD 11 release schedule to do any major changes.

As a result, OSS was not released in a completed state with all options/features accessible. Hopefully, these problems will be fixed soon with an update.Thanks for the explanation. Certainly though an option which boots from CD so that OSS can be reactivated if it has been replaced in the MBR is absolutely necessary. I can not imagine a boot manager without such functionality.
