Daz Loader + EasyBCD + Truecrypt

Hi I just want to ask something I'll try to make it short as possible-

I had Windows 7 installed and used Daz Loader to activate it, later I encrypted my whole system drive with Truecrypt (v7) and Windows was still activated.

I then wanted to partition my drive and make a 10GB partition for XP, so I decrypted the whole drive and Windows wasn't activated. I ran Daz Loader, uninstalled then reinstalled and it's activated again.

Created the 10GB partition, installed XP, used EasyBCD and got dual boot working with both Windows being activated- this is how it is now (working fine).


What I want to know is can I now encrypt my Windows 7 partition again? I'm not sure if I'll need to redo the Daz loader (not that it bothers me) or if the Truecrypt boot loader will mess with the dual boot, or mess with anything? If it's only loaded before Windows 7 then I guess it will be fine, and I just enter the password after I selected Windows 7 from the boot menu?

Sorry if the way I write this is confusing I just want to make sure everything's going to work fine before I encrypt it again.

Thanks for any help, and sorry that this is my first post

 

Thanks, ok I will select that.

I know this isn't a Truecrypt forum, but if I only want to encrypt the Windows 7 partition, do I select system drive (where currently running Windows is installed) and single boot? Or do I select the multiple operating system option?

I'm confused as the option to encrypt "only the system partition where windows is installed and running" surely that means only one OS can exist on it anyway?
So if I select single boot will my XP partition be fine and windows 7 be encrypted?

I'm terrible at explaining things lol


Basically- do I select single boot or multi boot from Truecrypt to encrypt just the Windows 7 partition?

 

I sorted it- had XP partition and Windows 7 partition, with EasyBCD to make the dual boot loader.

Went into Truecrypt and chose encrypt system partition/drive (I only wanted to encrypt the whole Windows 7 partition, not the XP one).
Chose encrypt currently running system partition only (rather than whole disk including all partitions option)
Chose multi boot option
Chose not to encrypt hosts protected area
Chose "yes" for is this the boot drive option
Chose no for the "is a non windows boot loader present" option

Create rescue disk then encrypt the drive (after the test thing it asks you which needs a reboot)

Once it's encrypted obviously you need to enter password at boot (before the boot loader OS select screen) and you can enter either OS.
You only need to enter the password to get into the encrypted volume otherwise you can press escape and get to the boot loader to access unencrypted partition, if you choose the encrypted partition after pressing escape it comes up with an error.

After that I checked if Windows 7 was still activated and it was, but I uninstalled Daz loader and reinstalled with the "preserve current boot code" option like Daz said, just in case. It took 2 reboots to be activated for some reason, may be because my version is fully expired, but it all works 100% fine hope it helps you- sorry for long post but I thought I'd explain in detail as I was confused about it messing anything up myself.


Edit- btw I did originally try to encrypt the whole drive including all partitions, but it wouldn't let me, can't remember why but it's not possible as far as I know
