Boot Camp partition missing, VMware Fusion not working

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

Here's what my fusion menu looks like.

Boot Camp is from WinClone.

Windows 7 x64 is a brand new fresh install that is only part of Fusion (not Boot Camp).

Boot Camp 2 is an import I've tried and it wants me to upgrade the OS because it can't find the OS here.

I will delete all of this if you like. Please give me the word to go ahead.

Something has come up about the MBR is missing. To repair it I think I have to boot up on the Windows 7 DVD. But then it can't find the Boot Camp partition.

I don't remember seeing either choice. I'm using Windows 7 and the article refers to 8.

I downloaded the software but haven't done anything with it.

Here's the Terminal info:

1: No

2: I ran the steps

3:

a. yes

b. will try now

c. yes (for the first time in a long time).

d. I'm going to do this now and will be back in touch in a little while.

OK

3 b Yes

4d - I started up in BC but all I got was a flashing cursor on a black screen.

I have not deleted or imported any Fusion files

I saw R.NTFS so I started on the Windows DVD and ran Repair.

Unfortunately I still can't get Boot Camp to do anything beside give me a flashing cursor on a black screen.

What else can I do?

This is from the terminal screen after I did everything above. It still says R.NTFS

Good morning Loner T,

I tried bringing up Windows in BC in Safe Mode. After choosing Windows from BC I held the fn key and repeatedly pressed the F8 key. I also tried it by just holding both keys. The result was a black screen with a flashing cursor.

Just DVD

NI. Flashing cursor on black screen.
