Windows 7: How to enable Dual Boot?

So currently I have Windows 7 64-Bit as my Default OS.
And I have XP on my hard drive on another partition.




But look at Boot:



How can I re-enable Windows XP on dual boot? Last time I had it on dual boot, it gave me an option. Windows 7 or Windows XP. I want that back :P

Have a look HERE. Look further on the page until you find: " Adding a Windows XP entry with EasyBCD ".

Thanks, trying it right now. If it works I'll report back

Ok in easybcd I did add entry Microsoft xp.
Now when I turn on my computer and it goes past bios it says invalid boot.ini file starting from c:/windows/ and keeps booting over and over again. I tried my system recovery disk I made and it says something in French then it says invalid boot.ini like last time so I'm screwed. I'm on my iPod.. :/

Managed to fix it, it just happens that the French words were saying "Press any button" lol

Sometimes foreign languages helped. Too bad you did not tell what it said. French is my second mother language.

Hmm so what do you think I should do? Seeing as easybcd just corrupts my boot.ini file :x

Maybe this would work: Extract Files from Windows 7 Installation DVD

Please post back a screenshot of your maximized Disk Management drive map with listings, using the Snipping Tool in Start Menu.

Did XP ever boot? Was it configured into a Dual Boot during Windows 7 install? What happened that caused it to stop booting?

Screensnapr > Snipping tool BTW


XP never booted. When it went past BIOS, all it said was this:
INVALID BOOT.INI
Starting from c:\windows\

And it just kept looping over and over with that message. I fixed it using a start up recovery disk.
@whs I will try that!
