Triple boot

Postby Acacius » Fri Oct 12, 2012 8:09 pm

Hi
I have two different OS installed into to different hard disk.
If I install a third OS in a thirda hard disk, Dualboot Pro recongnizes this third OS automatically or I have to run the dualboot Pro soft again and configure?
Best regards

I also have 3 (actually 6) OSs installed on 3 different HDDs.
My last install of a single OS (Win7) on a SSD HDD worked fine.

The Windows Boot Mgr detected it & it showed-up in the DualBoot PRO OS tab, yours should too unless your installing XP or a older OS, then you might have a few hoops to jump through.

Hi Schreader
Thanks for your answer!!
I am not installing XP.
From yours words I deduce that the DualBoot PRo recognizes a new OS instal and show up in the dualBoot PRO OS tab when you boot the pc, is this correct?
Have a fine week end.

To upgrade to the last version of DualBoot Pro, it needs to unistall the previus version or just run the last version?

Its been so long now for me.

I beleive that you can just upgrade it rt. over the top of the older version though.
You should bake a backup of your BCD files first if you haven't already (@ care center tab).
