Hey everyone, just checking in—found the profile in C:/Users, but Windows 7 isn’t displaying it despite trying to hide files.

This situation often requires making educated guesses because I can't be there in person. I've seen similar problems before, so maybe I can assist. Would it help to restore the BIOS settings to their original state and check if it appears during startup? Probably worth a shot if that doesn’t resolve the issue. Another idea is to boot into Windows 10 and use your partition manager to verify whether Windows 7 partitions have been replaced with a GPT instead of an MBR. It seems like the partition itself might be the problem.

Hi, I see you've encountered some challenges with your system setup. It sounds like the BIOS reset didn't resolve the issue, and the disk configuration is set to MBR without any GPT partitions. You mentioned that Windows 10 lists several partitions under Primary Partition, which might be confusing. There are also entries for System, Boot, Page File, Active, and Crash Dump in brackets. Given that all three partitions are marked as primary, but Windows shows additional entries, it could indicate a compatibility or configuration problem. The fact that setting the Windows 7 partition to active caused the computer to stop booting suggests a potential issue with Windows 7 itself. Since you haven't detected any errors during scans, it might be worth checking the BIOS settings for any recent changes or conflicts.
