Wow! I can't believe it was that easy! Thanks a lot! Alright my next step now is to be able to boot into Windows 7. How do I go about doing that? Also if I get that to work to, how do I change the boot.ini so that it just says XP and Windows 7 only instead of - multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Second part of XP Professional x64 Edition setup from hd 0 part 1" /FASTDETECT c:\="-------------------------" c:\="Try entries below if getting HAL.DLL/NTOSKRNL.EXE not found errors" c:\="--------------------------" multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Second part of XP Professional setup from hd 0 part 2" /FASTDETECT multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(3)\WINDOWS="Second part of XP Professional setup from hd 0 part 3" /FASTDETECT multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(4)\WINDOWS="Second part of XP Professional setup from hd 0 part 4" /FASTDETECT multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(2)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Second part of XP Professional setup from hd 1 part 1" /FASTDETECT multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(2)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Second part of XP Professional setup from hd 1 part 2" /FASTDETECT multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(2)partition(3)\WINDOWS="Second part of XP Professional setup from hd 1 part 3" /FASTDETECT multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(2)partition(4)\WINDOWS="Second part of XP Professional setup from hd 1 part 4" /FASTDETECT

This is how my partition looks like. XP is also set to active partition already. That's how it looks when I boot from hardrive or flashdrive but it only loads from flashdrive. The one highlighted is the one that works. [boot Loader] Timeout=5 Default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS [Operating Systems] multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Second part of XP Professional x64 Edition setup from hd 0 part 1" /FASTDETECT c:\="-------------------------" c:\="Try entries below if getting HAL.DLL/NTOSKRNL.EXE not found errors" c:\="--------------------------" multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Second part of XP Professional setup from hd 0 part 2" /FASTDETECT multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(3)\WINDOWS="Second part of XP Professional setup from hd 0 part 3" /FASTDETECT multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(4)\WINDOWS="Second part of XP Professional setup from hd 0 part 4" /FASTDETECT multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(2)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Second part of XP Professional setup from hd 1 part 1" /FASTDETECT multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(2)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Second part of XP Professional setup from hd 1 part 2" /FASTDETECT multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(2)partition(3)\WINDOWS="Second part of XP Professional setup from hd 1 part 3" /FASTDETECT multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(2)partition(4)\WINDOWS="Second part of XP Professional setup from hd 1 part 4" /FASTDETECT When I try to select the highlighted one from booting hardrive I get this error. "Windows could not start because of a computer disk hardware configuration problem. Could not read from the selected boot disk, Check boot patch and disk hardware. Please check the Windows documentation about hardware disk configuration and your hardware reference manuals for additional information."

Come on somebody has to know. I need someones expertise. If you need more information on anything let me know. Not exactly sure what information to give on top of my head.

I created a Windows XP boot USB using this program called WinSetupFromUSB_0-2-3. It installed properly. My problem is it won't let me boot XP from my hardrive and the only way I can get into XP is booting from the flashdrive. Currently trying to dual boot Windows 7 / XP I can no longer boot into Windows 7 since I installed XP.
