Help very much needed.Help very much appreciated.Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Are you getting the "earlier version of windows" OS selection choice during boot? That would be the W7 bootloader. boot.ini and ntldr are ignored at this stage. If it's going straight to XP without that screen try mucking about with EasyBCD(requires .NET Framework 2.0).
