    I succeeded in creating a dual boot environment with Vista on C: and XP-SP1 on D:

    After having backed up XP on a DVD with Acronis True Image, I tried a recovery process, i.e., restoring XP to its original place alongside Vista. When I now go through the dual boot process at pc startup and select XP, I get a message stating that Windows could not boot. It displays "/ntldr", status : 0xc0000225, Info : cannot load selected entry due to missing or corrupt application. There is no problem booting into Vista at startup.

    I tried a bootcfg with the XP cd but that did not help. I even copied from C: to D: the BOOT file along with bootmgr, boot.ini, ntdetect.com and ntldr to no avail.

    Is there something to be done with EasyBCD?
