Q: Can't boot into windows after resizing partitions
I tried to resize my bootcamp and mac partitions recently
I cannot boot into windows now
Get an error about missing MBR
Do you think you could help me here?
I read about using GPT fdisk on another thread
These are the results I got from it
Wanted to check before doing anything

You have El Capitan, so we need to disable SIP.
1. Boot into Local Recovery (Command+R).
2. Start Utilities -> Terminal.
3. Type csrutil disable in Terminal and press Enter/Return.
4. Type csrutil status.
5. Boot normally, and type csrutil status to confirm that all individual entries are still disabled.
Please ignore the i386 MBR error message, but not any others, in the following steps.
sudo fdisk -e /dev/disk0

setpid 4
