Mmm. That should've worked. One of the other guys who are watching this thread may have some ideas. The only other option would be to invest in a third party boot manager such as DualBootPRO

Okay, I have DualBootPro 1.1, how do I use it to solve my problem?

Dear Destryky,

Please forgive my delayed response and not personally writing out the details of using Dual Boot...

...The above URL links to a tutorial on how dual boot can be used to host two operating systems on the same computer.

Let me know how you get on.

Looking at the content page, it would appear section 6 is the one that you need.

Good luck.

Hi I have used OSL2000 for many years and until now never had a problem and wonder if anyone has any idea's. I installed Win7 on 1 partition and win7 64bit on the second partition, installed OSL2000 rebooted and registered it which reports back saying that it has been registered. When I reboot however I get a message saying " Version mismatch (old or invalid boot module detected) reinstall OSL2000 again". I have tried several times without success has anyone any ideas as to what is going on please.

You don't need OSL2000 to dual boot w/ Windows 7.
Windows 7 has its own built-in boot manager.

For tweaking the boot items I prefer DualBootPRO, it works great

Hi shreader thanks for getting back to me. I realise that Win 7 has it's own dual boot manager but I found that certain software installed on both partitions instead of just 1. With OSL2000 they are completely independant of each other which is what I need. I have never had this problem before and am at a loss as to what "version mismatch or old invalid boot module" means. I have contacted OSL2000 but they have not replied which is rather rude as I have a legitimate licenced copy of OSL2000 and they claim they are always willing to help.I have searched the intenet for information on this problem but am unable to find anything and was hoping someone on the forum may have had a similar problem. If anyone can throw any light on this matter it would be very much appreciated.

Hi shreader Just to let you know I have sorted the problem. Somehow the bios became corrupted and after shorting out the motherboard cmos with the jumper and rebooting all is now working OK. Thanks for reading the post and replying.
