Hi everyone.

As the title says, i can't boot the OS (Windows 7) from my brother's SSD (Kingston UV400 240GB).

Last night, i was working with this normally, like any other day, no problems at all.

Today, unexpectedly, i got the "Missing Operative System" error after bios post; and when i connected it to my PC, i couldn't backup data because the SSD appears as RAW format.

So, i was avoiding to format the SDD and i tried to recover data with "Mini Tool Partition Wizard" but i didn't work.

Lastly, my only options (i think) are:
  1. Launch the Windows repair tool from the Windows 7 DVD installation. (I read about MBR-something could be the problem here).
  2. Accept my destiny (partially), format the SSD, write nothing on it, of course, and try to recover all the data with EaseUS or Recuva.

Any suggestions?.
Has anyone tried 2)?.

Thanks.
