    Hey Josey-

    If you can figure out how to get him into Kyhi's recovery environment, Macrium is there - he can try the FIXBOOT option.

    You've helped a ton. I had to go back into my BIOS to put the windows boot manager at the top of the list, but now everything is booting fine. I'll run chkdsk from the command prompt. What options do you suggest for chkdsk?

    I do an image of my system daily. It is worth it and it is free. Takes about 5 minutes.

    Just ran chkdsk on both drives and everything is fine. Thanks again for the big help!

    This was a good reminder of how important backups are. I've been sloppy but after this I really need to keep on it.
