Dual Boot Problem after 12.3 upgrade!

English Install/Boot/Login

Hello,

I upgraded from openSUSE 12.2 to 12.3. But the grub doesn’t give me an option to choose Windows 7 anymore. I put in Windows installation DVD and and tried a startup repair and it didn’t help either… wiped out the grub. Now only Wndows 7 is there… So I had to do an update on openSUSE again (only took a few minutes) & same problem with the grub at the startup… no options to choose Windows 7!

Could you please help me fix this issue? Can it be done using bootloader?

Also, I want Windows 7 to load automatically after grub screen timeout instead of openSUSE… How do I fix that?

Thanks.

Go to YaST2 bootloader configuration, ensure GURB2 is selected and “Probe foreign OS” is checked. It will detect Windows and add it to boot menu.
