I built a new system and installed Win7 on a new SSD. The system is UEFI capable, and I performed the Win7 install with UEFI boot. I created another partition on the SSD, and I transferred a Win8 install from a hard drive (with MBR and BIOS boot) to the newly created partition on the SSD. I used EasyBCD 2.2 to add the Win8 install to the boot menu. I rebooted, and I had a choice of Win7 or the Win8. Selecting Win7 just went to a dark screen and never returned. Selecting Win8 causes the following error -
A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source. File: \Windows\system32\winload.efi Status: 0xc0000428
Info: Windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file.
I know that the winload.efi file is the is the original file from the installation and is not corrupted.
After playing around a bit, I was able to get the Win7 install back up and running, but I am not sure how to get the Win8 working. I have Win7 Pro 64 bit and Win8 Pro 64 bit.
Thanks in advance for any advice ...
