How to use the startup management of XP system to solve the dual system of Vista and XP, I believe that many inexperienced people are at a loss about this. Therefore, this paper summarizes the causes and solutions of the problem. Through this article, I hope you can solve this problem.

I. introduction of dual systems

1. Characteristics

The XP,Vista of this dual system is independent and independent of each other, and each is installed in a main partition.

During the startup process, bois--mbr--ntldr-- chooses whether to boot to XP or Vista, which means it's too troublesome to start XP via boot.ini via boot.ini with XP. Say goodbye to bootmgr.

2. Disk tool 1: software for backing up mbr

Debug,XP under dos, winhex 13.7 under Vista and dd under SR7,linux (there are many tools for saving mbr)

3. Disk tool 2: partition tool

There are also many partition software that can change the active partition, but in XP and Vista disk management, you can change the active partition and right-click on the primary partition to mark the disk partition as active.

4. System installation sequence

Any, first XP, then Vista, first Vista, then XP

Second, how to partition the hard disk

Divide 2 main partitions, one to install XP and one to install Vista, it is best to put the XP partition in front, because the multi (0) disk (0) rdisk (0) partition (1) in boot.ini records the partition order.

The following description is taken according to the scheme.

How to install the system

a. Install XP first and then Vista

1. Activate the first partition and install XP

2. Save mbr as mbr.1

3. Activate the second primary partition, then install Vista

4. Save mbr as mbr.2

5. Activate the first partition and boot into XP

6. Copy the saved mbr2 to the root directory of the partition of XP, and add a line to the boot.ini

C:\ MBR.2= "Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate"

b. Install Vista first and then XP

1. Activate the second partition and install Vista

2. Save mbr as mbr.2

3. Activate the first primary partition, then install XP

4. Save mbr as mbr.1

5. Start to enter XP

6. Copy the saved mbr2 to the root directory of the partition of XP, and add a line to the boot.ini

C:\ MBR.2= "Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate"

Interested friends can compare mbr.1 and mbr.2.

Fourth, solve the problem of canceling the dual system

a. To cancel the XP system, activate the second primary partition, and then process the first primary partition

b. To cancel the Vista system, delete the boot menu, and then process the second partition

Note: if you use pq partition, there may be problems with boot.ini booting Vista under XP. Please use the partition tool that comes with XP and Vista to re-partition. Spfdisk is recommended.

Attached: the method of saving mbr

Run winhex 13.7 SR-7

Press "F9", select "physical disk", click to the first partition of the disk, and then click the menu: edit-copy sector-the shortcut key is "Ctrl+Shift+N", enter a file name.
