Have you tried last good config or safe mode?


Yeah, neither worked.

Well, it appears the catalyst causing the problem was done at 4:03AM. Funny, I have automatic updates turned on which download/install themselves at 4AM.

I booted in to the recovery console, ran bootcfg to scan for Windows installs, then a repair install, and everything is OK again. Actually, everything is OK again after I unplugged one of my other SATA drives and moved it to a different port. Had nothing to do with the boot drives, so go figger. ;-| Only 5+ hours wasted.
