Before installing the different Windows versions on individual drives, I tried putting them all on the same drive with multiple partitions. I had a drive with 3 partitions booting successfully, but the drive letters would never change regardless of which partition was booted.

Also the same "chkdsk" issue would happen then, but only if I had booted into a partition with a newer version of windows than Win7 during the last session.

If I shutdown from Win7 this wouldn't happen. I discovered that after booting a 8.0 or 8.1 or 10 partition, if I booted into the Win7 partition and shut down from there, the multiboot drive wouldn't cause "chkdsk" to start automatically when I moved the drive to the other computer to image.

All very strange...
