I installed OS Selector to my machine, but it is not recognizing my pre-installed version of Vista Home Premium. I don't know what seems to be the problem, but it is starting to become a hassle as I have to press f6 everytime I boot up my machine to skip to the vista boot screen. Any suggestions to have OS selector find Vista - or to uninstall os selector? (Can't do it if you don't have a found os)
Thanks

Welcome to the forum.
Is your preinstalled Vista an OEM brand-name version (Dell, HP, Compaq, etc.)? If so, OSS has a problem detecting those. Acronis may have an update that will find it. You could try the Live Chat (http://www.acronis.com/company/contacts/request/index.html?t=1) support service and see.
Another option is to manually add the Vista entry to the BOOTWIZ.OSS file. I can do this for you if you post your file. Instructions can be found here. (http://www.themudcrab.com/acronis_oss_bootwiz.php) Attach the text file copy of the BOOTWIZ.OSS file to the post (please don't paste the contents -- it's much harder to work with).
