EasyBCD is the greatest Vista thing I have every seen! Dual booting to vista\vista. I have an identical second drive which is updated nightly.
Both boot perfectly, thanks to the easyBCD menu.
I added\removed a few USB devices and rebooted, and lost both hard drives.
The error was:
missing file \windows\system32\winload.exe
Well, it was not missing, but the drive letters apparently got mixed up with my USB devices. It seems to be a common problem.
I fixed it, but have a question:
What does easyBCD point to?
In other words, \system32\winload apprears to be critical to load vista.
Is that what easyBCD points to? In simple terms, how does it work?
I want to understand this to avoid losing bootup again.
