Hi,
I was having trouble installing XP because the setup wouldn't see the partition that I had set up for it. Eventually I had to delete that partition and let XP create its own which turned out to be only 6 GB in size. I decided to go ahead and install anyway, and then later booted back into Vista using the recovery disc and extended the XP partition to 50 GB manually using the Disk Management utility.
Now, I've installed EasyBCD and added a new entry for XP as follows...
The problem now is that I whenever I select "Microsoft Windows XP" during boot, my computer simply restarts instead of loading XP. The "Microsoft Windows Vista" option is working perfectly though.
