Computer Guru Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 No need to do that :censored2: Boot into Windows Vista from the Darwin menu (via the Other entry), and in EasyBCD -> Manage Bootloader -> Reinstall Vista Bootloader If you don't have the other menu in the Darwin prompt, stick the Vista DVD in the drive, advanced options, startup repair. That'll revert your BCD menu instead, and you can use EasyBCD (if you haven't already) to add Mac to the Vista boot menu. Cheers! (BTW, you are using 1.52, correct? 1.5 & 1.51 act up a bit when booting OS X and RTM Vista) (PS: Use the automatic option in EasyBCD, not the manual :censored2:) PPS: Thanks for using EasyBCD!
