    Installed W10 on a partition, which broke my Veracrypt setup


    Hello.

    I decided to give Windows 10 a go today and Installed it on a new Partition of my 2nd SSD.
    I installed it via USB Stick and it went smoothly. I booted into W10 and it detected the other half of the 2nd SSD, but the main SSD, which is Veracrypted and runs W10 did not get recognised.

    The W10 Partition sees itself as C: and the 1st SSD (which actually is CInstalled W10 on a partition, which broke my Veracrypt setup :) gets seen as G: without any other information.

    It got wierd when W10 booted even though i selected the old SSD, where W7 should be installed.

    I can now no longer access W7, only W10 by selecting the old SSD.

    I also got some 0xc00000f errors.

    I'm afraid my veracrypt bootloader got overwritten by W10 and my files are lost, is this true?

    Any help would be very appreciated, I have some very valuable images of my family on there *Sad

    :)

    W7 Hard drive partition issue

    to get rid of that 100 meg windows partition that setup creates for you on a new install on a blank hdd:

    - press shift+f10 when on the partition management screen in setup <-- this opens a command prompt
    - diskpart <-- start the windows command line partition management tool
    - list disk <--- list the installed hdds in this computer for the next step
    - select disk 0 <- might have to replace 0 with the number of the correct disk
    - clean <-- this will erase all data on the disk you selected one step up- dont use the wrong disk!
    - create partition primary <- creates a primary partition taking up all space on the drive, adjust the command if necessary
    - exit, exit to exit diskpart and the command prompt
    - click refresh in partition manager and select your newly created partition and install to that

    Delete my W10 Partition

    Hi, so i made a W7 Partition with W10 Partition. I was wondering IF this W7 doesn't BSOD on my Graphics Driver like W10 has, can i somehow delete the W10 Partition and Extend the W7 Partition? I know i would probably have to use the setup USB stick to repair the W7 Boot

    My SYSTEM:

    ZOTAC ZBOX-AD04 PLUS+4GB RAM+648GB HDD
