Hi folks,
I posted a few weeks ago and thank you for your help then.
Briefly I have xp on C, windows 7 on D and also E, windows 8 on F.
All partitions on the one hard drive, with xp as the active partition so basically if I loose everything if xp partition becomes corrrupted.
A few questions,
1 If I ever decide to get rid of xp altogether (format that partition) Do I just go into one of the other windows before doing so in disk management in computer and set one of the other windows partitions as active? Is there a bootable DVD available that would enable me to do that at boot time?
2 In Easy BCD backup/repair options I notice that there is a change boot drive option. Would using this accomplish what I am asking above?
Thanks a lot
Joe
Addendum
Seems I may have asked something along these lines in this post,

the old memory isn't good
But still anything further that anyone can think of will help me.
Many thanks
Joe
