Problems with Win 8.1/7 dual boot.

I have a new system with a HD from an older system with win 7 32x. I reformatted another (1T) HD and installed win 8.1 64x. Win 8.1 did not add win 7 to its bootloader, so I added it manually using bcdedit. Win 7 shows up when win 8.1 starts, but won't boot and goes into repair mode (that also didn't help). Below is the current bootloader. I changed the path for win 7 from winload.efi to winload.exe since there was no winload.efi in the system32 folder, but it didn't help. If I unplug the Win 8.1 HD Win 7 boots fine. My BIOS is set to boot both EFI and legacy. Seems the problem has to do with the older win 7 MBR and win 8.1 EFI, but I don't know how to fix it. Thanks for your help!
