(damn winboot.efi error)


WTF were you doing? Trying to make a Hackintosh?

Nah. I had used a hackintosh for years with very few issues surprisingly, but I now have the last real good Mac Pro Apple made. (not the trashcan). Mac Pro 3GHz 48GB RAM GTX 780 Samsung XP941 512GB SSD

Thing is I was stupid and decided to update to the latest Mac OS Sierra, which apparently has an issue with Windows installs in the same machine; even if they are on separate drives. (Which mine is).

None of Windows tools, CMD line procedures, or any suggestions on any forum I checked could fix it. I eventually got a whole new Windows 10 install (all be it on a slower Samsung 840 SSD) running pretty much normally again.

Turns out there were no less than five separate conflicts from Bootcamp drivers, video card drivers, and windows own automatic updates in the background that were preventing from any fresh re-install from working properly.
(very frustrating). Finally got it working again last night.
