BCD Store

[Clarence]

One question, I read the BCD store replace the standard boot.ini file config in vista & windows 7 – using the advanced boot menu to rebuild the master boot record is BOOTREC/REBUILDMBR one question through is does you need the original installation disk the rebuild the MBR (the book does not specify this) or will the NTFS copy of the MBR be used to rebuild the BCD store?

You got to be in Recovery Environment to bootrec. Unless you have made other arrangements with the installation files, you need the installation disc.

Yep!! I was talking about the command prompt in the Windows Recovery Environment.... I know NTFS File System creates a copy of the MBR in the boot sector. My technical pal told me that this can also be corrupted by a virus. So the disk is necessary..............
