Well it saying no windows OS was found is a pretty significant bit of info, wouldn't you say?  Makes me think there's a disk issue or the partition table is not correct.

Check with a partition manager, or try:
bootrec /fixmbr
bootrec /fixboot

Make sure the boot device is set correctly in the BIOS.

    Under Windows Boot Loader, the Device and osdevice items should be set to unknown.

Yes


--- Quote ---    bcdedit /set {default} device partition=c:
    bcdedit /set {default} osdevice partition=c:
    bcdedit /set {bootmgr} device partition=c:
--- End quote ---

All three fail with "A device which does not exist was specified"

jmone:

--- Code: ---bootrec /rebuildbcd

Sounds like no C drive with a windows install.  See previous comments about partitions and BIOS.

In case I am leading you into unfamiliar territory, speak up and be very careful:

diskpart
list disk
select disk 0
list partition
list volume
