basically i installed windows 8 yesterday on a unused partition on a hard drive that was currently in there and everything was fine could go into windows 8 and could go into windows 7. Now then i installed a seagate 3TB HD and it came up as is it couldnt read my disk drives to be able to boot from. I reinstalled windows 8 and from the boot options the windows 7 install on my SSD doesnt work. it says it cant access the disk but i can copy stuff from and to it through windows 8. Before at the boot menu it said windows 7 Volume 5. the volume 5 is gone next to it now so anyone got any ideas as to why its stopped working/unrecognizable and the recovery options dont seem to work.

asus sabertooth x58 motherboard

seagate barracuda 3TB (new one i installed)

ocz vertex 2 120GB SSD (windows 7)

Hitachi 3TB HD (storage and program partition)

think its a maxtor (windows 8 partiton and storage partition)

      draw.io Desktop 30.2.6 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics. Generate diagrams from text descriptions using our smart templates. Diagram faster with keyboard shortcuts. draw.io Desktop 30.2.6 changelog: Uses electron 42.5.0 #2452 Updates to draw.io core 30.2.6.
