Hi all,

I have Windows 8.1 Pro x64 installed initially. I installed Windows 7 x64 on VHD and wanted to boot load it. But when loading Windows 7, I get error like

Code:
Windows failed to start. A recent hardware change ....
File: \Windows\System32\winload.exe

required file is missing or contains error.

I tried to repair it using Win7 cd but it doesn't work.
I tried EasyBCD to edit/add things but no change.

The tutorial that I used is MicroNugget: Native Boot to VHD in Windows 8 - YouTube

Here is the current BCD info
