I am in the process of rebuilding my system (xp media center) and the way I chose to do this was to unplug the old hard disk and buy a new hard disk and reinstall xp. After installing xp successfully, I added the Vista bootloader and EasyBCD 1.7.2. Everything works great! Now I have plugged back in the old hard disk and I would like to boot from either hard disk. (The intent is to eventually make the old one go away and use it for Linux).
Now here is the problem. The ADD/REMOVE Entries button is very confusing to me. If it was Linux on the second drive, the drop down menu on the Linux tab would let me pick hard drive 1, partition 1 as the location of the operating system. (which is where the second xp system is; partition 0 is the recovery partition). However, on the comparable Windows tab the drive selection is greyed out and is set to C:\. I added a "windows (old)" selection anyway. Then I went to CHANGE SETTINGS button and set the drive letter for "windows (old)" to G:\ (the location of the old xp files). Is this what I should do?
Thanks
