Changing a Dual Boot with XP & Win7
I want to keep both operating systems but I want the dual boot to be through the BIOS rather than with the boot manager. If the drive with XP fails I want to still be able to boot into 7 by just selecting that drive at the BIOS Boot Menu.
XP and Win7 are each on there own Solid State Drive
I think this is doable but I have searched and searched and cant find an article on how to do it. Is it as easy as deleting Win7 from Windows Boot Manager and then running "Fixboot" on Win7?
Motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-Z77-HD3
P.S. Are there any downfalls to what I want to do?
