Post subject:  dual boot...
i have a pc that i dual boot with...it was vista (raid 10)...and windows 7...(single hd).
any... when you boot up..it gave you to choices..i.e vista or windows 7.

anyway..installed another copy of windows 7 on the raid...... and now it only shows the new install..........

ok...i found a program.. and added the old install as an option.... and it then showed up...but when trying to load it..it comes up with ntldr missing or corrupt...

going back to the program..i fiddled around with it..and somehow..rebooted straight into windows.....(no option of choice of op system...... )..but rebooted into the old install..(which isnt that bad...cos thats where my games are...

anyway..any ideas of what went wrong besides me doing it.... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:



ive installed plenty of dual before..but the options always appeared..... i think :lol:

I had a similar problem on a server at work, where we'd re-ghosted it incorrectly and over-written the little Windows boot partiton :scratch: Although in that case someone had done a disk restore instead of a partition. I'll get me coat...
