| | 2 Operating Systems Hey guys, I've got Windows 7 RC1 installed and on the same disk I had created a 20GB parition for future references. Due to requirements of booting XP because of lack of hardware compatibility, I chose to install XP on the 20GB parition. Now I cannot boot in to Windows 7. It simply loads XP. Any way around this? Thanks... |

| | Thanks Dwarf. It works. So if I want to remove the Windows XP installation I just format that partition? Then I guess I'll have to remove XP from EasyBCD too? |

| | Hello the803, You should be able to just remove XP from within Windows 7 using the tutorial below. Operating System to Start - Delete OS on List at Boot If for some reason your boot file gets messed up after deleting the XP partition, then you can run a Startup Repair to be able to boot back to Windows 7 again. Hope this helps, Shawn |

| | Thanks for your reply Shawn. Unfortunately, in boot I only see Windows 7 - not XP =[ |

| | Strange, you should see XP listed there in Windows 7 after completing all of METHOD TWO.  |
