Alright so yesterday i was trying to get windows 8 to work on multi-boot. so i made a new partition and the files copied over fine and then the computer restarted and it tried to continue installing but it encountered an error. so i assumed it needed more space because the partition was less the 25GB(which is what microsoft recommends). so i deleted all of the files from the old installation(so i could have a fresh install) and i made the partition bigger and then i ran the installer again. all the files copied over no problem but when the computer restarted i did not have the option to choose windows 8 or windows 7 it just automatically loaded up windows 8 which is not even fully installed yet. so now it keeps booting into the windows 8 version of the windows needs recovery page and it says "the Boot Configuration Data for your pc is missing or contains errors(\boot\BCD)"
so i have tried making a windows 7 repair usb but i cant access my hard drive for some reason, is just doesnt recognize it. so my question is how can i access my harddrive or its partitions. i'm certain i can fix this if i can do that. i also dont want to open up my laptop to take the harddrive out.
Thanks in advance
