Hi everybody,

I wanna to know how i can change the boot name of windows xp_sp2

before setup the windows (i.e. i wanna to c windows MSFN in the boot menu)

bye the way, i have windows xp media center as we know it is 2 CD :

the 1st CD is windows xp_sp2 if i install it alone the boot name is "Microsoft Windows xp Professional "

but when setup the 2nd CD the name become "Windows XP Media Center "

i wanna to know how !!!!!!!!!

Any ans. will be great.

I'm waiting................................

look for a small file on the C: drive called BOOT.ini

once XP is installed, open it up and you will see something along the lines of:

...

...="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect

just change the text to read something else - "Windows MSFN Edition".

1st thanks neil

i know this but this isn't my q

My q is how i can change it is before windows setup not after winodws setup.

WHERE????

Are you talking about the Text Setup portion??? or the list of availabe boot partitions?? Before the Windows Logo comes up??? During the Setup...

You may think it is easy to understand , but WE need more detailed information....

1st thanks BrandonS_Mil ,

Wat i mean is when u put ur Win Xp CD (suppose u have bootable one ) then u start the setup progress u will c the textmaode and copying and .... finally it will restart then u will find in OS loader opions "Microsoft Windows XP Pro..OR Home.. Setup "

then when windows finish the all it is setup the name become "Microsoft Windows XP Pro OR HOME "

wat i wanna to change is the name of windows ( i.e. i wanna the windows Automaticlly type any name say Windows MSFN ).

i think it is now good for understand.

Any ans. will be great .

doesnt this belong in the multiboot forum?
