Solution!!!

FINALLY a Solution!!

My Fellow Canadian Friends at ehMac.ca Told me a solution and it worked!! (I had to give props..becasue this was a tough answer to find!!...thank you Josh)

Try this guys!!!....it is a free program

"Download EasyBCD 1.7.2 - NeoSmart Technologies and choose "reinstall vista bootloader" within the manage bootloader section. This should fix your problem."

take care

Does it work?

Hi i have downloaded EasyBCD, my question is, when i reinstall the Vista Bootloader, will it stop Boot Camp from working as its rewriting the MBR?

Anyone that has tried this, does Boot Camp still run after pressing "Reinstall Vista Bootloader"

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I decided to test it and worked perfectly. I have been told it will only negatively impact Vista that uses a BIOS crack.
