Ok, so what happened was I formated my D Drive and made that my OS, then I restarted my computer. Everytime I turn it on it gets to the boot manager and then restarts again over and over. It never gets passed that, not even to the logon page.



Is there a way I can undo what i did (make my C Drive my OS again)?

try a system restore

1. go into disk management and change D to C
2. now make C the active partition - after assigning another letter to the current C.
All this assumes that you have an MBR on the current D. Else you have to repair the MBR.

Can you post a screen shot Disk management?

What did you do about the OS on C:?

Did you change any of the BIOS boot settings?

I used Easy bcd to do it, and my C Drive is still sitting there, full. I don't recall changing any of the bios settings.

I can't do that, I get to the boot manager and then my computer just restarts itself over and over. I can never log on.

I am a little late to this discussion.
My first thought is why did you do it ?
What where you trying to achieve ?

Let's try the easy way first:

Boot into your Vista DVD, and try a Repair. It should detect two installations of Windows. Make sure you select the one on your D: drive (if they have identical names, select the second one).

Then, click on Startup Repair, and follow any instructions. After it's done, reboot normally (don't reboot into the DVD).

If that doesn't work, try it again, but select the system on C:.

If that doesn't do it, it means editing the MBR in Command Prompt, where it gets a little tricky.

So I put the disk in, but nothing happens. I wasn't able to open anything.

It was just my poor attempt on formatting my computer without any help or instructions.
