win xp x64 dual boot on win 7
Hey there,
I have a toshiba qosmio 505-884 came with windows 7 x64 home preme and I wanted to re-install my copy of win xp x64 with a dual boot.
I had an extra flash USB drive laying around so I used wintoflash to install windows xp onto the usb, booted from the usb after a fresh reset - boot menu popped up, selected to install win xp > loaded drivers and such > only HDD to select was on the USB couldn't select my formatted/partioned on my normal HDD that is on the laptop.
Am I overlooking something? I have EasyBCD all set up and ready to go after I boot into windows, I also used the nLink on the CD so that I could use my SATA HDD...
Thanks for the help in advance,
Ki.
p.s I had a windows xp running on my dual boot and ran EasyBCD and created a bootmbr and then my xp wouldn't boot at all so I formatted the partion (15gb) and was hoping to re-do that, but can't seem to get past Windows setup only seeing USB.
