787927 2009-07-01 10:34:00 i have two versions of windows 7 installed on my hd. a 32 bit and 64 bit system.I want to remove the 64 bit version.64 bit on C drive , data storage on D drive and 32 bit on E drive.When i start system, doesn,t give me choice of os to start, goes to 64 bit version. Any ideas mrplane (11854)
787928 2009-07-01 10:39:00 What you will need to do is open disk management in 64bit 7(run>diskmgmt.msc) and make sure the E drive is set to active.

If that fails to work, then you will need to use the bootcfg /rebuild in cmd and manually add in the 32 bit entry to the bootloader.

787930 2009-07-01 11:04:00 open up command prompt and type in bootcfg /rebuild

It'll search for installations and add the 32bit 7 to the bootloader
