ok hehe backup backup backup backup..........

and i have never laerned that. i think i better get burning my stuff on DVD.
just in case

but i dont think i have the courage for it in the neer furture if i risk my hard drive.

sound like a masive job. and not for a noob like me.
so i gues i have to wait for some time. maybe til i buy Vista.
and then install it on another harddrive hehe.

but thanks it is nice to know.

That util will do what you want to do. Read through the correspondence in the support forum. It is free.

Happy trailz,

 

Yep, just install it to your XP and delete the Vista bootloader. Very easy to use.

 

thanks alot it has bothered me alot. :cool

and just the unsertenty that i cant use failsafe.

being an idiot i need it.

 

Its very easy to do if you still have your vista disk just boot to your disk and go into the repair options then open a command prompt and type "rom drive":boot\bootsect /nt52 this will return your boot loader to the XP boot loader and XP will boot normally

where the "rom drive" is put what ever letter that your drive is

 

Interesting, thanks for the tip!

 

well it worked great !!!

i now start up in XP

thanks alot :cool

can i now just delete the vista folder ?

 

Yup just delete it as there's nothing pointing there anymore.

 

i just tried it want delete, ??

no access to file. or write protected.

i then right clicked on the folder. and removed the dot in write protected.

but it still says the same ??

 

Try going to disk management and formatting the partition or deleting and recreating the partition.confused
