BSOD in Win 7 Boot Camp with Pegasus R6
I'm running an early-2011 MacBook Pro with OSX 10.9.5 and Windows 7 on a Boot Camp partition (which I also use with Parallels 11). I've got a TB display daisy chained to a Pegasus R6 and from there to a Dell U2711 monitor. I recently reconfigured the Pegasus array to create an NTFS formatted logical drive to clone my Windows partition to before trying to upgrade to Windows 10 (I know it's not technically supported on pre-2012 models, hence the cloned backup).
As soon as the clone was finished, I tried to reboot into Boot Camp (using my normal Win7 partition, NOT the cloned partition on the Pegasus) but ran into a BSOD reboot loop ("STOP: 0x0000007B..."). I also tried to reboot using the cloned partition on the Pegasus, with the same BSOD result. Since the only thing I had changed since the last time I successfully used Boot Camp was the clone, I rebooted into OSX and erased the clone partition, but left it formatted as NTFS (using Tuxera NTFS). I tried booting into Windows again with the same result. I shut down the system, disconnected all TB peripherals, and tried Boot Camp again. This time, it worked with no problems. After reconnecting the TB cable, I rebooted into OSX, reformatted the Pegasus logical drive from NTFS to HFS, and was able to reboot into windows successfully.
Here's my question: does anyone know why I can't boot into Windows when there's an NTFS formatted logical drive configured on the Pegasus (even an empty one)? I have the latest Pegasus drivers installed on both the OSX and Windows sides, and using MacDrive I can access all the HFS partiitons on the Pegasus when booted into WIndows.
Thanks!
