It seems that when I installed the 'preview version of windows '8', which made me lose many desk top apps, can't print, etc, my windows 7 vanished. I then reinstalled windows 7, but can't find it to open. Where is it ? How do I get it to open ? Thanks My problem is I can’t locate windows 7 to be able to open it.

Do not use this!!! If your computer won't boot safe mode at the start screen and you enable this it makes your computer reboot in safe mode forever and crashed at login screen ... and the only way I got it back was to go into the command line from the recovery console and put this in.... bcdedit /deletevalue {default} safeboot ...so don't try this .. it took me 4 HOURS to fix it... the best thing to do is live with it or re install windows 7 !!!

I've been hitting F8 like crazy for hours! At long last, with your help, I can now restore my computer to a previous state. It's approaching midnight in Thailand and I can now retire to bed peacefully. Million thanks! I can't thank you enough for pointing the way to enter safe mode in win7.
