I installed Windows 7, on my computer it shows both drives, Windows 7 and Vista premium. But when I try to boot to Vista from Windows 7 I get error message that says needs ntldr.

Did you maybe change your drive priority in the BIOS? Anyway, if you don't have XP or another older OS that still uses ntldr, then you can delete boot.ini, NTDETECT.COM and ntldr. Then you'll need to run startup repair using your Windows 7 DVD.

I have fresh install of Vista in one drive and fresh install of Windows 7 in another. I did install vistabootpro in both drives, maybe thats the problem? I am going to do repair on Win 7 to see what happens.

Finally got it working. I had to do repair with both discs on both HHD's, and before that I had removed the VistaBootPro from both drives. It working great now. Only thing is that is set to boot from Vista first, but how do I change it so I can have Windows 7 as first option??????/
