    How to Mark a partition ACTIVE from dos?
    « on: August 17, 2011, 10:24:25 AM »
    windows 7 was working properly but now has an error MRB Missing. I used the original disk to attempt repair of MRB but have failed.

    I am pretty sure hat I marked a new partition that I created as "active" or "primary"

    I am now in dos and can see in DISKPART DIR a  command which says ACTIVE. Is there a way to check which partion is active? And what is the remedy if his is the problem?
