Problem with booting windows vista

Guest

I have a problem and I don't know if anyone knows how to fix it.

I installed Vista Ultimate on my 2nd partition. My 1st partition has XP Pro
which I am using now. When I went into vista, I set Windows XP to the default
operating system and I set the time to display OS choices to 0 seconds. Now I
can't get into the vista boot menu. Does anyone know how to change this? I
cant even change it from xp. all I can get into is the xp boot menu when I
start my computer. Is there a way to edit the vista boot options from windows
xp?

Yes--you could use bcdedit and you can look that up in this group or on
MSFT's technet site.

But it's easier to use

http://www.vistabootpro.org/
"Advanced settings include backing up and exporting your boot loader
configuration, making advanced "functional" changes like adding an operating
system to the boot menu..."

"EasyBCD is geared for users of all kinds. Whether you just want to add an
entry to your old XP partition ..."

Good luck,

CH
