The image is too small to make anything of it. Please repost full size image.

That is the same size as the previous one...look for the code that says thumbnail for forums and the copy it all. See the code in my example below

Code: Select all: [URL=http://img140.imageshack.us/i/dman.png/][IMG]http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/4420/dman.th.png[/IMG][/URL]

Thanks. Now on which drive/partition do you have XP installed?

Make sure the ntldr and ntdetect files are on the root of the Vista drive C:\

Your boot.ini should say and also be located on the root of drive C:\

Code: Select all: [boot loader] timeout=30 default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS [operating systems] multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP" /NOEXECUTE=OPTIN /FASTDETECT

I assumed that XP is on Drive D: from the image

by **skandal999** » Thu Jan 07, 2010 1:24 am

Yes it is. But I put ntldr and ntdetect.com at the D: root. Am I understanding you want them at the root of c: as well?
