A new version of EasyBCD, the popular award-winning Windows Vista Bootloader Editor that lets you easily configure dual-boots between Windows Vista and older versions of Windows, Linux, OS X, and BSD, has just been updated to version 1.7.

Along with a new version number, EasyBCD 1.7 has some brand new features to offer and a number of bugfixes. Some of the bigger changes:

* Full WinPE 2.0 support. Supports both WMI Ramdisk files from local and removable disks in addition to extracted ramdisk images.

* Complete UI re-design.
* Rewritten NeoGrub for Linux-less GRUB.
* Support for GRUB-less Linux.
* NTLDR-free booting for DOS-based operating systems

These are just some of the new features, download EasyBCD 1.7 (free) to see the rest in action.

Grub-less linux... That sounds nice.

The home page of this program says that you can boot OS X with it!!! Don't they know that this is illegal.

Only if it's already installed on your machine. Basically, it'll configure the BCD to boot OS X instead of having to use Darwin. smile.gif

Thanks for all the kind words, guys.

If there's anything extra you'd like to see added to in the next version, don't hesitate to ask!
