Weird one this.

Had a look around, but not found anything about it.

Ok, When I installed VMWare, and installed another OS, it went on just fine.

When I tried to install a second OS, it would not boot.

I have been using ISO Images of CDs, and mounting those, this has always worked for me in the past, but not now?

I did some tests, and I found out that this is the case no matter what I do.

First OS installs etc perfectly fine, but others after it, simply wont find the boot media?

It makes no difference what OS is first or second, it simply wont go.

I have even tried cloning the first and that too fails, although how I thought it would help is anyones guess, I just tried it to find out really?

Ok, it does not do this on my AMDs, they do their job perfectly fine, its only the Conroe & DS3 that does this, so I was wondering if this is yet another problem that I am going to have to live with?

Like I said, the first OS is fine, but I cannot have more than the one...
 
Erm, no?

Hang on...

Ho hum... Tra-la-laa!!

Hey, Bugger me sideways with a bike... I never thought of that???

How come its only this one that needs to do that then? I have been using VMware for a year or so now, and never needed to do that before!?!?!?

Hey, who cares? The main thing you sorted it for me... Cheers mate.

Pint on its way to you right now.... Can you borrow me a couple a quid though? LOL

Thanks mate.
