phvrc2nt Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 i have a problem... cant seem to find solution to dual boot my system. setup: laptop m2000 series compaq internal hdd : osx86 external hdd usb : win xp i installed osx86 using native dvd install (without usb hdd being plugged in) - after everything worked i popped out the internal hdd (osx86) - plugged in usb hdd and installed winxp everything worked as well. replaced my internal hdd and configured the bios to boot usb first. but everytime i remove the usb, bios forgets the settings and i have to reconfigure bios to boot to usb hdd (windows) is there a bootloader procedure i can follow to make the bios null and instead, do the following >>> boot internal hdd bootloader > if usbhdd (winxp) is present, boot to usb > if usbhdd not present, continue loading osx86 <<< i hope someone helps out... thanks in advance.
