Didn't know whether to ask here or in the setup thread. I have Windows 7 & 8 as a dual boot on the same hard drive. I need to re-install Windows 7. I assume Windows 8 has control of the MBR, so what will happen to Windows 8, will 7 override the MBR and if so how do I get 8 back again? Windows 7...

Hi guys, Thanks for replies. SIW2 you are correct, Microsoft is going to make it difficult if not impossible to use bcedit. I've abandoned the idea and now have Fedora running on a separate M/C.

I can't get Explorer 10 to run on my desktop, had to remove it.
