I did something and now I can't boot to Vista
I did something and now I can't boot to Vista. I am using EasyBCD and told it the default OS is Vista and it still boots to Win 7. Argggg....

Hi Mike,
Please post a screenshot of Disk management window. Also the output of Easybcd View.
I removed the Win 7 drive and can now get into Vista, but there is no boot menu anymore. I restored Vista, and it didn't bring back the boot menu, even with the Win 7 disk installed.
Here's screen shots. Yeah, I know, only one boot option.
I think I saved something in EasyBCD to the W7 drive and it screwed the boot menu up. Doesn't matter what boot OS I choose, it still booted to 7. How can I fix it without installing 7 again?

I just saw your post - what is different from your screenshot and easybcd entries now?
Post the screenshot and easybcd entry as they are now.
Don't change anything after that - coz that is what I will be going on.
What I posted is what they are now.
To clarify things, there is no boot menu now, even with the Win 7 drive installed.
Yes, I can only boot into Vista.
You boot straight into Vista and that's it. Not surpised with only one bcd entry.
Open an elevated command prompt and type: ( or copy and paste these)
cd /d e:\windows\system32
then press enter
bcdboot e:\windows /s c:
then press enter
close cmd window.
