    Hi,

    Someone installed XP onto my system its installed on a partition and vista is still on drive C however its constantly booting into XP.

    How do I get it booting into vista again so i can remove XP?

    Thanks!

    Are you getting a choice of operating systems when you boot? If yes then you can use MSconfig to edit the BOOT.INI file and change the priority.

    If you are not getting a choice then try using software such as Easy BCD to fix the vista bootloader.

    Thanks John.

    Just need to figure out how to use it. Everything looks okay in the bootloader. It says it should load from vista but isnt.

    Thanks
