Migrating WoW

[Jim]

Windows 7 booted right up, but of course nothing was right. My boot partition was drive C and my system partition had no drive letter assignment. And I no longer had DOS.

In searching the web I found one person solved the dual boot problem by copying over bootsect.dos. I tried this, but it did not work for me. Maybe I should have reformatted the system partition first? I plan to try again.

The second problem is getting the boot partition to be the right drive letter. Again from the web people say there is no way to assign a drive letter when installing from the Windows 7 DVD, but that this can be done from a scripted installation. How does one do a scripted installation? It sounds like a lot of reading and a lot of work. It may also be possible to get the boot partition to be drive F by adding the right number of discs to the system during the installation. But I have to get dual boot working first.

Any help will be appreciated. How are things in Dalaran?
