| dual booting xp and 2003 problems okay here's what's up: i installed 2003, THEN xp on my system-2003 stopped working i learned that i must first install xp before 2003, or 2003 will have it's boot files overwritten. so i installed xp, then 2003. before the second installation of 2003, when i booted i got a choice as to which o/s i wanted to use. it didn't matter 'cause 2003 wouldn't work anyway.after the re-install of 2003, i do not. i tried acronis boot selector to enable me to have the choice again, it wouldn't recognize my xp partition as active.. soooooo, i'm back where i started-i have been jacking around with this for many many hours-anyone got a suggestion? thanx jon |
