    [Solved] Win 7 - Win XP dual boot problem


    I have Windows 7 and I'd decided to install Windows XP as well (dual boot). After installing XP, I was able to boot into Windows XP ONLY and couldn't get it to boot into Windows 7. I had to download Easy BCD to recover my Win 7 boot info and now I can only use Windows 7. Is there any way I can an option to choose between Windows 7 and Windows XP while booting up the computer?
