dual boot win7/xp major mess up help needed
So i have two hard drives. The larger one has windows 7 installed on it. the smaller one is new and so i decided to install win xp on it.
with both drives plugged in i successfully installed win xp on the smaller drive. my problem is that everytime i boot up i do not see the option for win 7 in the boot menu and by default the pc always boots into win xp
i made sure in my bios that the boot priority was with the larger hdd first but this still does not seem to solve anything. i have also disabled the hdd with xp on it but it still boots into it.
how do i get back to win 7 and how do i see it in the boot options. will removing sata cable from small hd solve it?
also all my win 7 contents are present as i checked them in win xp
i will greatly appreciate any help
thanks
