Ok, I have an SSD. Windows 8 Consumer preview was installed on it. I then partitioned it in half in Consumer Preview. I then installed Windows 7 on the newly partitioned fresh half of the SSD. When I'd boot up I would get the usual BIOS black type screen asking whether I wanted to boot W7 or W8 with a 30 seconds timer. PERFECT.
So today I installed W8 Pro, I formatted the W8 Consumer Preview half of the SSD using the install disk before installing W8 Pro.
So now I have W8 Pro on one half of the partition, W7 remained untouched on the other half. HOWEVER, when I boot now it automatically boots to W8 Pro and gives me no option to choose what OS I want to load !_!
Can anyone help/explain this? I need W7 for work programs to run ASAP.
Thanks in advance!
