I Re-read the Posts and reviewed the Terabyte info. The Terabyte page said that if I selected a partition and got a message that there is no BCD...
I only have the failing OS HD in the system. I booted BIBM and there are 3 partitions shown on the MBR of HD:0, MBR 0 Partition 39MiB Dell...
Makes sense now. I am getting more concerned about the overall health of the drive. I'll disconnect the other drive and try BCD Edit again. Thanks.
OK. Will do.
BTW.... did I mention that the OS HD has failed the Seagate Seatools SMART test. According to the tests that Seatools performed, the disk is...

I wasn't in the office today, I'll try this first thing in the morning. THANK YOU !!!!!
I went thru the steps in the link in post #211, but it seemed to be to no end. I couldn't see the point as I wasn't changing anything as far as I...
Hi Brian K. OK... the "Recovery" partition has the BCD in it and I made it "Active". What's the next step to do ?
Hi Brian K. I believe I had tried check the OS, but I'll double check it again on Monday. I sure wish I had asked for help when the drive first...
It can be attached, but there is nothing in it. It's 1.3GB of Unallocated space. When you attach and then unattach the VHD there is a box you...

Off the top of my head, I seem to recall the Image was 591GB. I'll have to look at specifics in the morning. Thanks Brian K
It can be mounted, but there are no files in it when I use explorer or explore thru DiskMgt. The entire 1.3TB is shown as Unallocated. I didn't...

Yes, it seems like I have recovered what I was after. Of course, it would have been nice to be able to "wake up" the drive and get it to boot....
Yes! Here is my status at this time. Of course you know I boinked the Image file when I unattached form it and selected to delete the files...
OK. I've cooled down a little. I have turned my efforts to trying to "undelete" the VHD file I stupidly deleted (accidently, of course). I...
How true. I know I have to learn when to walk away for a while. I'm obsessed with this problem, but perhaps I should let it rest for a while.
Now what ? I was trying to look at the VHD files again in the image and I mounted it and took a look around. Then I Unmounted it, but I did...
Hi zapjb, No, not a bad SATA cable, I meant that rather than physically pulling the drive out of the slot, I merely unplugged the SATA cable from...
