You must have Windows installed not on the primary partition.

This is a bit deceptive.  The bugged install will still wipe out the boot.ini if both Windows and Eve are installed on the primary partition, it's just that Windows will still start up without a boot.ini when it's installed on the primary partition since that's where the OS looks if it can't find a boot.ini.  So Windows should start, but the boot.ini was still erased.

On something like a laptop, which will typically have a restore partition as primary, Windows will be on the secondary partition even though they call that partition the C: drive.

Over and out.

Yup, looking at the bug list, I'm honestly wondering whether they should simply cratch entire Trinity, rollback to RevII and keep it with it.

Wait, what? How did that happen? I was in Jita right after the patch went live.

There's a bug which locks people's clients up if there's more than 700 people in-system.  awesome, for real

There, first of BoB's bold new strategies:
1. Wait till goonies form their standard issue battle fleet (700)
2. Send one guy in.
3. ...
4. Profit!
