First off I have searched the forums and many of these types of questions go unanswered.
I have built a dual boot Win 7 and Win Xp image. I used Easy BCD to start and show the menu and have the user choose the OS. I created the Win 7 first and then installed the Win XP following some instructions from the WinSeven forum. I used Winlite to inject the proper WinXp Sata drivers and the system is set up under BIOS as AHCI.
The computer is an E6530 Dell computer with a 128GB SSD. The master is built and works fine. I have taken an acronis image to capture all partitions and I have also performed a sector by sector (not copying empty sectors)
When all is said and done everything is copied over and Win 7 runs with no problem. Win XP produces a BSOD. I have tried to restore partitions separately and various other methods. Copying the proper IASTOR.sys file to the d:\Windows\systems32\drivers directory. this gets me past the BSOD, but Win XP just goes to a blue loading screen and sits there.. Very little HD activity.
I am looking for any help and guidance to address this...
thanks,
Rod
