I have Vista Beta 2 on my C: drive which I installed over an XP Pro installation which was setup as a dual boot between XP Pro & Windows MCE.

Now when I boot my machiine I still get a dual boot menu giving me the options of Earlier Version Of Windows & Windows (Vista)

If I select Earlier Version Of Windows my old boot menu comes up with the options of XP Pro & Windows MCE but as I installed Vista over XP Pro this option does not work, MCE works fine.

Anyone got any idea how I can edit this menu or Vista's menu so I can choose between Vista & MCE directly?

I have searched for boot.ini but it appears to have disappeared.

I know I need to use a boot manager to edit vista but I don't know what to add or change.

Thanks

Nige.

I think it is to do with the /ntldr but I don't know what I should replace this with so I don't get this second menu.

my bootloader info is as:

I want them both, but only the Vista is working.

When I select MCE I get my previous bootmenu which gives me the choice of XP Pro or MCE, if I select MCE it does work but I want to bypass this second bootmenu.
