Windows7 dual boot gone?

[WingZero30]

Hi guys

I had windows7-32 bit on both C and D drive. So every time I started my PC I would be presented with a choice of selecting either of the two.

Just recently I clean-installed a fresh copy of windows7-64 bit on C drive again and now the option fo dual boot has gone during the startup and instead PC just boots from C drive. I have also noticed that C drive space still stayed the same even though it was a clean install. Any ideas?

The option to dual boot has gone, because you wiped the boot information on the C drive. That C drive will have held all the boot info, so it doesn't know anymore that there is another option.

Quick question, why did you have two installations of Windows 7 anyway?

My D drive is the older HDD and I first installed all the programs etc on it when I first moved to Win7 from WinXP. Then I recently bought Samsung F3 500GB HDD and installed programs and while doing that I didn't want to lose all the important data on the older HDD.
