Windows8 is installed in my old Vista partition on Disk0. Disk1 is data and Disk2 is the SSD with my Windows7 (see picture below).
Whenever I boot into Windows8 (via the BIOS boot sequence), I end up with one or more of the other partitions mucked up. And I am not doing anything in those partitions from the Win8 side.
When I then boot back into Wun7, it wants to do a chkdsk for one or several partitions. When I let that go, I get a real mess. So I now stop it each time. A couple of times I lost a whole partition (was no more accessible). Last was the X partition which is really empty and hardly ever used.
Does anybody have a clue what could be happening here. I really do not fancy rebuilding and restoring those partitions. One time the Win8 partition itself was mucked up and I had to reinstall it (because I could not get any imaging program to work yet, so I had no images).
