I have Vista on one drive and XP on another.
I have added an entry for XP and when I try to boot to Xp the system simply re-boots.
This is what the boot config shows:
There are a total of 2 entries listed in the Vista Bootloader.
Bootloader TimeOut: 30 seconds.
Default OS: Microsoft Windows Vista
Entry #1
Name: Microsoft Windows Vista
BCD ID: {current}
Drive: C:\
Bootloader Path: \Windows\system32\winload.exe
Windows Directory: \Windows
Entry #2
Name: Microsoft Windows
BCD ID: {99fe61f1-b6d9-11db-aeac-8000600fe800}
Drive: E:\
Bootloader Path: \ntldr
Windows Directory:
As you see, the Windows Directory for Xp is missing.
When I first added the entry although I put E: in the drive box, Easybcd saved it as C: and caused \ntldr missing errors, so I changed it to E: manually. Then it started to re-boot on choosing the XP boot option
Is this what causes the problem with the XP choice re-booting?
I have tried to add the \Windows directory to the config, but can't see where to add it.
If I go into debug mode in the settings window, there is no entry headed Windows directory for the XP details.
