Need to rebuild MBR for SSD System Drive UEFI

HD3: Data + MBR partition for SSD (now deleted)
I have a SSD and three normal Hard Drives. I believe that my MBR for my Windows installation was on one of the old hard drives because I erased the partition and now I get the "BOOTMGR is missing" error message on startup.

Performing a Clean Install Gets Rid of the System Reserved Partition
I performed a clean install (windows 7 SP1, 64 bit) in order to move my system recovery 100mb partition to my SSD, because I had my HDD connected when I carried out my first install. I did this with the HDD unplugged, but now my computer boots up correctly with no system reserved partition on C.
Any help appreciated!

It was clean,and I carefully returned it to its slot(there is only 1 slot for hard drives on my laptop).
Then I decided to install Windows 8.1,to make a...

Tried to upgrade to Win 10 Preview. Blackscreen during setup. No boot.
So a couple days ago I got impatient for Windows 10 while reading all it's upcoming features. So I decided I'd give the insider preview a whirl and when I saw I could just install through Windows Update I was even more elated since I figured it was error proof.
So I left Win Update download and went to sleep. At some point during the night my net broke and I had to power cycle my modem and...

Remove original drive in dual boot system and replace Win 10 SSD? How?
Here's the situation. I have a 17" Sager laptop with two hard drives set up with dual boot. The first drive is the OEM drive that came in the laptop and Win7. After I installed my work software, and made sure the machine was stable, I used the computer in this configuration for a few months. I then decided to set up dual boot using a Crucial SSD drive with Win7 in the vacant 2nd hard drive...

Wrong Volume Being Pointed To In Dual Boot System?
Hi
I'm puzzling over why I can't load Win10 in a dual boot system. Running EasyBCD (in win7)I find Win10 is pointing to HarddiskVolume3. After searching the internet, I eventually found that I can get the volume numbers using Diskpart and what I found may be my problem. EasyBCD is telling me that Win10 is on HarddiskVolume3 whereas Diskpart is telling me it is on HarddiskVolume2 with counting...

Can't Install Windows 7 after Windows 8 install
Ok so I feel pretty stupid but for the life of me can't figure this out. So I installed Windows 8 on my Dell Inspiron 6400. It was running Windows 7 and I figured I would give 8 a try (huge mistake). So now I am trying to get back to 7. I tried booting to my Windows 7 USB and it just boots to Windows 8 install which I find pretty odd. So I format the drive and try to reboot to the 7 install but...

Installing Zorin 9 on Windows Seven drive
Hi, I have a drive that I want to use to dual-boot W7 and Zorin. I have created a new partition, basically slicing the drive in two. W7 HP 64 bit is on one partition, other is blank, ready for Zorin. I have not assigned a letter to it yet or formatted it. I want to install Zorin correctly, without wiping out W7 (which I did once when installing Mint). So, how do I do this?
Thanks,

MS Software Recovery
Hey all,
I have used the page to download English version ISOs (my personal copies are all English), however I can't see any Turkish in the drop-down list.
I tried to get a Turkish one for my brother-in-law's PC which has a Turkish OS. I don't think he would mind whichever, but I am not sure if I could install English OS with his key.
Any input is appreciated.
Thanks
