I get an error message that VistaBootPRO is unable to detect that Vista is installed. Rebuilding the BCD store did not make a difference. (Application name removed due to stolen code from PROnetworks) I only have one OS installed, Vista x64 ultimate.
Thanks.

It does not constitue an alarm as long as you can boot to Vista. Basically, if the Vista drive is not marked as Active in Disk Management you will see this error.

Our next version is actually removing this check.

Thanks. The Vista OS volume is marked as active in Disk Management, but I still get this error.
btw, what on earth is this business about "stolen code"?

Not to go into a lot of detail here but we had an individual that worked for PRO at one point and upon termination due to a breach in contract stole the source code for VBP.

If you want the entire story you can find it here. smilenod

But, I would not be worried about that error. The reason I say this is because the code being used to look for a specific file is not 100% accurate. The .NET framework can possibly return an invalid list of drive letters which is why some people experience this and others do not.

If you have no problem booting then I would say that is the case. But, if you want to find out if there is anything wrong you can post the contents of

VistaBootPRO -> View Settings -> All

here and I can tell you if there is anything to worry about.
