Also has anyone had success with a Recovery Disc or similar ?
A good question, one which i do not have the answer to at this time. I will do some research, and try and get my hands on a recovery disc and attempt the process myself.
If when you load the disc there is an option to repair boot and for a dos prompt it should be. Enter the dos prompt and type bcedit.exe without any tags, if it is available then it will prompt you with either to press help, or the help page itself. If this happens, then yes, it works.
