Don't tell it to actually clone anything just act like you are going to clone the real drive and then use just the "Cool Tools" to make the virtual copy bootable. You might need to pick a bootable W7 drive and tell it to make the "clone" (your virtual copy) bootable. Not sure if it will work if you choose say a W8 or W10 as the source and then tell it to make your W7 virtual drive bootable but it might be worth a try if nothing else turns up. You can find the program at" http://www.xxclone.com/ The program itself is not an ISO file but a install program that runs on a host machine. With a look see at the "Cool Tools" documentation (somewhat limited on info) at: http://www.xxclone.com/ixcman40.htm Make sure you download the program from the host web site as they add a no-install-after code in the installer which is only good for a limited time. Usually on 3rd party download sites like CNET, MajorGeeks, or FILEHIPPO the installer program has already expired (at least on the free version). Another alternative that I have not tried is WinISO. Take a look at this link and see if it looks like it will help you. http://www.winiso.com/support/tutori...table-iso.html |

Startup Repair can fix certain kinds of damage. That's about the closest thing I know of to "inject" anything reasonably close to winload.exe or winload.efi. Startup Repair can rebuild a damaged BCD. And the mechanical equivalent of Startup Repair can be executed from Command Prompt from a booted installer DVD. In this discussion thread, you can see some of the ingredients of manual triage. http://www.sevenforums.com/hardware-...uild-fail.html When doing this sort of work, make sure you did a *complete* backup of the affected hard drive. If you screw it up, you can restore from backup. I intentionally keep the contents of my C: drive small, so that it is easy to backup (takes 10 minutes). There are two web forums that handle the intricacies of how OSes boot, and the experts there can tell you whether any "surgery" is possible, in the way you describe. Since I've never managed to get any of their recipes to work, I'll leave that sort of experiment to you. ******* And it is all too easy to completely destroy your OS partition. I succeeded doing that to my Windows 7 install. I happened to use Linux, to look inside System Volume Information. I attempted to read (not write) some shadow files. On next reboot, Startup Repair was automatically triggered. After three reboot attempts (Startup Repair runs up to three times), the partition was no closer to being repaired. The partition could no longer be mounted from Linux. It was, essentially, completely ruined. And all too easily ruined too. It's a good thing my latest backup was only two hours old. So the event had a happy ending. It was purely coincidence that I'd done a backup two hours earlier, not actual good planning as such... I have not managed to ruin Win8.1 or Win10 yet, but I'm trying. Paul |
