And you, sir, are horribly impolite, mister Bill Daggett.

We already know from original post that OP has solved the issue.
In most forums, posting to a thread assigns one a watching status and sends email updates. Which is better: Creating a new thread on an obscure topic, or hoping one might be able to contact someone who has already solved the issue?

The post listing what was done to correct the problem listed the entire process for figuring out how to solve, which is interesting but unhelpful: there is no concise walk through of just his rather creative fix.

After some hours of work to verify, the same objective (moving BCD) can be achieved through the following walkthrough:

-In Windows, Open up diskmgmt.msc
-Make a new NTFS partition or use an existing one, but set it Active (right click menu).
-Boot to Vista/Win7 DVD. (If your unit gives "Startup Repair" as a boot option, you should be able to use that instead.)
-Select English, select Repair your computer.
-When it tries to auto repair, skip/cancel instead of restart.
-It doesn't matter which windows install you select, hit next.
-Open the command prompt.
-Run "bootrec /rebuildbcd".
-Type yes to add the windows installations, until it stops asking (if you have a multi-boot situation).
-When it's done, reboot and come back to the "Startup Repair"/Vista DVD/Win7 DVD.
-Select a windows install and hit Next.
-Then select the option from the list that says "Startup Repair".
-Restart when prompted.
-Now go back to the Vista/Win7 DVD for the THIRD time.
-Select a windows install and hit Next.
-Open the command prompt.
-Change directory to the Vista/Win7 DVD (g: for me)
-run "cd boot"
-run "bootsect /nt60 sys"

When that's done, reboot, and you are done.
For Win7 you may have to run the "Startup Repair" option a final time.
