I had it before and after the fixes. The sfdisk fix didnt work here (or
maybe it did , but I had no patience to wait windows load , as I waited
for one minute after choosing to boot windows and still nothing
appeared.)
I've had a little accident with my disk (broke one of the data pins when
putting it back on the case) and had to solder it. And to test the drive
, I had to format everything...
I'm getting a new disk soon and I plan on using the 40Gb one to do tests
on things like this dual-boot problem.
