I'm grateful for the time you are taking over my problem. Actually, I did exactly as you said to do, starting with creating a 300Mb space at the...
I guessed that would be the process, and I did that. Thanks for the confirmation. There is now a third option in BIBM menu booting a logical...
Ahem, how do I perform that copy? I suspect it's some special mechanism to allow a size change?. Also, can I create it as a logical partition on...
Not able to determine what in BCD might be incorrect, entries probably were all incorrect to a minor degree, as will be described. There was...
I already did close to that successfully, by adding IFW to the windows recover boot when only IFW was installed, and before installing BIBM. Hope...
Well, there definitely seems something wrong with the BCD menu. The symptom is that resume from hibernation does not do a very quick boot as it...
Ah, no, there seems to be confusion in there somewhere or other. msconfig shows only one line, but won't allow me to set timeout 0. BootitBM after...
Well, it's working, but needs some fine tuning. Sorry, I failed to follow your instructions exactly, and had two snags, one unimportant. First...
No problems to report. Slid the partition to the drive start. XP is now drive 1 partition 1, blank space after. XP booted fine, but quickly...
It makes sense. When you check partition manager, the XP partition is listed second, and simple 'unallocated space' comes first. So as far as BCD...
That's fine - let's see what happens with limited partitions and take it from there. Boot.ini says this...
OK, I see that I think. Now booting under BIBM changes that situation? The boot partition is then the BIBM partition, which transfers control...
I don't want it to be anything to do with XP, that's the whole problem - I can't stop it being visible to XP. It is the Windows Recovery...
And slightly further down.... remove letter= L Removes the drive letter, L, from the volume with focus. If no drive letter or mount point is...
I feel an incentive to give BIBM a try, now you have promised to hold my hand ;D :-[ So far, have created the bootable CD. As instructed, I...
So you do see my partitions ok now :) Win98se does not boot via an entry in Easybcd. It fails with NTLDR not found. I assume this is because the...
Can you try this ? http://www.techspot.com/community/forums/windows-os.15 Or register (free, quick) yes, each drive has one active, bootable,...
Ref the Win 7 disk management description --- Volume WinRe, no drive letter, Simple, Basic, NTFS, Healthy (System,active,primary partition), 5.86...
I started with two drives, a new one with Win 7 installed, usual way with partition 0 as WinRe and partition 1 as Win 7 OS. Partition 2 is...
This is proving frustratingly difficult. I cannot get sensible results from what I have done so far, and don't know what I am doing wrong. I...
Point taken. Using a new dedicated partition is probably best. To use an existing OS or data partition to store .ISO's might trip me up if booting...
I was wondering about that too. Maybe you just unhide the partition (which you would need to do anyway to access the partition and put the iso...
I have Win 7 pro and Win XP pro dual booting - that was easily set up with EasyBCD. I also have various imaging and partitioning and windows...
seekforever, you speak complete sense, and I have actually been evaluating ATIH, Easeus, Macrium and IFW with exactly that in mind. The only...
Agreed, I have done that OK. There are various other drivers as well which are clearly sourced by other packages I have tried, like Macrium...
