Hi MSFN Members,

I'm Matthew C and I'm making my own BartPE edition called "Vista Portable Edition". I'll tell you that later.

Everything builds fine in PE Builder, but when I burn my Vista Portable Edition ISO to cd, and reboot to try it out, I get:

Booting from Atapi CD-Rom:

No Emulation

CDBOOT: Couldn't find NTLDR

And then boots my XP off the Hard disk.

Please Note, that this "Vista Portable Edition" OS I'm making is based on the Windows XP Source Files!

It is Windows PE, but it's customised to Vista looks. I'll make a topic about it soon.

The bootsector is from a WinXP Disc, not Vista's Boot Loader.

The issue ticking me off.

I use the latest PE Builder version.

Any ideas? I'm only a newbie.

Thanx in Advance,

Matthew C

Vista Portable Edition Builder

I do know that Vista and XP have two different kinds of loaders. I cant tell you why this error is occuring but I can tell you that ntldr is the old loader used in 2000 and XP. So if you are using something that was designed for XP more than likely that is why you are getting this error. I am not saying that you cant modify the files. I just dont know how to do this yet, myself. The Vista Boot loader and Boot folder is a good place to start.

I'm sorry I couldnt be anymore help.
