| | Re: XP boot loader. Download and install VistaBootPro (www.vistabootpro.org). This software is free. Once installed run VistaBootPro and click on the Manage OS Entries tab. You will now see your boot menu list of operating systems installed on your PC. Highlight the operating system you want to remove and then click the red 'X' button on the right of the list of operating systems. The entry you have highlighted will now be removed. Finally click the 'apply updates' button. When you restart your PC will boot straight into Vista. -- -- John Barnett MVP Associate Expert Windows Desktop Experience Web: http://xphelpandsupport.mvps.org Web: http://vistasupport.mvps.org The information in this mail/post is supplied "as is".

And here is documentation: http://neosmart.net/wiki/display/EBC...mentation+Home Or... just run "bootrec /rebuildbcd" from the installation CD's Recovery Environment: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927392 . *TimDaniels* |
