Need to bypass vista boot

I need to bypass vista boot. The boot program doesn't pass through to nldr
but does boot Vista. It worked yesterday. I really need to boot my XP
partition. What can I do?

VistaBootPro 2.1 works fine here with XP Pro / Vita RC2.
You can install and run under both, XP and Vista.

Re: Need to bypass vista boot

You can this web site and download the bootloader as it worked with builds
Pre RC1 and RC1. I did not have to use with RC2 which I installed yesterday.
Prior versions put in a phantom Windows Vista when I set up a new build.

Re: Need to bypass vista boot

VBP 3.1 is out and is MUCH better than 2.1 (unless dual booting with Win
2000). It can now clean up messy BCD files all by itself!

Re: Need to bypass vista boot

Thanks for the hint. BTW, VPC 2007 Beta will run fine under
RC2, I assume?

Re: Need to bypass vista boot

Yes. But it is a beta so expect (and please report) any glitches.
