    Windows 8(don't working) & Windows 7

    winload.exe problem


    I have a Windows 7 (32 bit). I installed Windows 8 Developer Preview (64 bit) on other partition, the installation went without error. On boot i got error: "Your PC need's to be repaired....\\Windows\system32\winload.exe.... Press Enter to continiue, F9 to boot other system"
    DVD recorded with the verification. On VirtualBox works. I sereval times reinstall Win 8, i got the same error.
    Sorry for my english

    You'll have to run Startup Repair from the Win8 installation DVD.
    Dunno how well it works in Win8, but in Win7 you had to run it at least 3 times.

    Good luck!

    On Win 8 installation DVD there is not StartUp Repair. Functions: Reset your PC, Refresh your PC, System Restore, System Image Recovery, Automatic Repair
