Try and Decide removed my boot manager

Thread needs solution

Long time user and believer in ATI, currently using ATIH 2013 and thought I'd see how well Try and Decide worked. I use Grub4DOS as boot manager for a multi-OS system and for booting bootable ISOs stored on the HDD.

I launched T&D from Win 8 Pro and it did what was expected of it until I rebooted after discarding all changes. On that boot I would normally be presented with my Grub4DOS boot menu, but that did not appear and the machine rebooted straight into Win 8. A bit more testing established that Grub4DOS had been removed and Windows BCD now had control of the boot process so it's clear that T&D does not function correctly when a non-Microsoft boot manager is in place. Would be interested to hear what happens when a Microsoft dual boot is in place. Does that survive?
