Vista Premium and MCE 2005 Dual Boot
Hello:
I installed vista premium on my pc yesterday running XP Media Center Edition 2005. I left MCE 2005 in its own partition and created and installed vista in a second partition of my 250 GB SATA drive.
Vista bootloader failed to find my MCE 2005 installation, and after an hour of fiddling with BCDedit, I downloaded the Vista Boot Pro.
After creating a legacy windows boot option in the bootloader in Vista Boot Pro, I restarted the box and attempted to boot MCE 2005 but was told that /ntldr was missing.
I then reinserted my MCE 2005 disk and fixed the boot and MCE 2005 booted fine. I then inserted the vista disk again, repaired the boot and once again tried to boot into MCE from vista bootloader but again was told that /ntldr could not be found.
Has anyone else had this issue ... or know how it can be resolved?
Cheers.
David
