akafazov Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 Hello,I month ago I installed a beta version of Windows Vista. I noticed that the setup installed the vista boot loader, which gave me the option to start either Vista or earlier version of Windows. After some time I deleted Vista but the loader stays. I have some questions regarding it: - How can I reconfigure the boot loader to give me only installed OSs as a boot option. - If I installed UNIX/Linux could I still use the boot loader or Microsoft still doesn't acknowledge existence of other OSs out there :) - Do I have the option to not install it?Regards,Angel Kafazov Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There a lot of workarounds and new tools available now. The pro-networks site the links point to have a very good boot manager tool if you want to check it out. Or you could use Vista's bcdedit.
