Hey folks just installed this so i can duel boot winXP and Vista, my system came with vista but wanted to have xp to so installed this software and followed all the tutorials on how to duel boot and everything went fine until i restart the pc and it gives me my 2 options of boot vista and xp, it says choose OS so i try to choose xp with the keyboard arrows but it wont let me choose? i thought it mite be my bluetooth keyboard not working but i tryed my wired board to and nothing so when the countdown timer ends it just picks the top selection of vista and loads that up, anyone else have this prob its starting to annoy me now lol, thanks for any help.....
 
Have you got Vista installed on a partition on the same hard drive as XP or is it on a seperate hard drive?

It was on the same hard drive as vista, i just managed to get it working seems in my bios the keyboard is set to work on OS setup, i changed it to work from bios and now the keyboard lets me choose which OS i want, because i wasnt booted into a OS it wasnt allowing the keyboard to work, happy days, thanks for trying to help tho m8.... :)

nvm i found the problem,i cannot believe it was so simple
i was using the usb keyboard instead of plugging in the ps2 connector :rolleyes:

are you sure it's not a bios setting somewhere? i can use the dual boot menu with my usb keyboard. and my mobo is 4 years old. :p
