Henkes Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 (edited) Looks like Vista isnt in the bootloader list anymoredid you install windows XP on a different partition as Vista?Could be either of 2 things:1: you installed xp over the same partition as you installed vista (thus not having vista anymore)2: winxp doesn't recognize Vista as a previous install and didn't add it's partition to the Boot.iniif 2 is the case you could try to add a line to the boot.iniwhere the partition number (2) would be the partition number you installed vista on.most of the times it's either 2 or 1, but seeing as you allready have 1 for winXP i'd try 2multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition([b]2[/b])\WINDOWS="Windows Vista" Edited August 13, 2007 by Henkes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henkes Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Should do the trick, if indeed your vista is installed on partition 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
