Tommorrow I was going to try formatting the SSD again, unhooking the old drive so the current install of Win7 can't interfere(?) and reinstalling onto the SSD.

Bingo!

When you installed W7 on your SSD, windows found and edited the Boot Configuration Data (BCD) file on the HDD to include this new installation. Removing your HDD will force the new installation to create a new BCD file on the SSD, eliminating the need to access the HDD first.

e. Enjoy your SSD!
