Okay well it was curropt / missing so I put in my vista disk did repair and after 20 mins it couldn't repair itself. So then I was about to do system restore to the point right BEFORE I installed CRYSIS from the xxxx.ea.com website.

Anyway so then it says it has to repair drive D which is curropt (d is a storage seagate 500GB drive.. ***?)

So I turn off pc -> unplug my seagate and turn on my pc -> there are NO windows partitions.. WHAT THE HELL?

This whole thing happened right after I finished the first level and turned off crysis. System was freezeing up so I hit reset..

Okay so what is there left to do? Reinstall windows?

EDIT: Just did halfway through windows setup to see the partitions and my WD is read. 232 with 90 GB left...

Windows is totally gone though? Was the crysis that I and Mulocke DL a virus? I doubt it?

It can't find the windows though? When I boot from CD with only my WD (main partition) installed I get no OS installed..

When I go to command prompt it tells me X:\Sources>

EDIT: I plugged my Seagate 500 back in and booted from disc and now windows found itself and is checking for consisitency..

I feel like I have some sort of weird windows partition.. My actually boot info is on my D drive yet windows is on C.. This should not be and is not how I planned anything. Whatever. So now it's finished checking as I typed this and it says Welcome and has booted into windows.. ***??

Okay I guess thread can be closed? O.o

I believe that Windows boot files were in the "corrupt D Drive". Try to check the corrupt D drive in another PC.

Okay! well I think I got my problem

Windows Boot Manager is on my C drive..

Windows Boot Loader (winloader.exe) the original problem is on my D drive.. I thought I setup my D drive as STORAGE ONLY but I guess I was wrong..
