Ok so over the last few years I have had to reinstall and mess around with windows vista pretty frequently ..the issue is that when I bought a new hard drive I just installed it like normal and piggy backed the OS to it ..however whenever my drives get shut down or disconnected accidently it refuses to boot any OS period (running Windows 7 RC right now) ..

I would really love to retain the Windows 7 RC boot and rid the master boot record of all the others .. each time I've given this a shot on my own it doesn't seem to work out great and I'm forced to go back to the previous arrangement.

Is there a program or perhaps I could get some suggestions on how I could manage it better and avoid this issue entirely? I really don't wanna install my recently bought windows 7 home prem on the same master boot record and I would love to take a few of these useless drives out and retain my previous windows 7 RC copy.

Thanks
