I registered and have been trying to download Vista Boot Pro, I keep getting the message This ID does not exist. Can someone explain what I am doing wrong please.

I have MCE on one Hard Drive and originally loaded one of the first Vista beta builds on another drive. It created a boot menu and worked fine. When the RC1 build came out and I loaded it, no boot menu was created. I have to go into the bios and change the hard drive boot order to boot the different OS's.

Thank You
Daniel

Gosh thanks very much for posting this yeshuas. I just checked and there seems to be a problem with both servers. We will get those download links back up as soon as possible.

By the way, welcome to PROnetworks thumbsup

My pleasure. I am certainly anxious to try the Boot Pro. I am going to try to repair the bootloader first tonight (saw a way to do that in another message board on here) I just don't understand what happened from one build to the other, both were clean installs on a separate hard drive from Windows MCE. First build created a bootloader RC1 didn't, go figure.

In the meantime, VBP is available from several third-party sites: BetaNews is one (I assume this is ok, considering the circumstances).

Just another quick question; does it matter which operating system you initiate Vista Boot Pro from as far as installing it e.g. Should I execute the downloaded file from XP or from Vista?

VBPro can be installed in either Vista or XP, or even both if you desire; I personally like to have VBPro installed in every OS I run with Vista to have that "instant" access. Welcome to PRO!!
