Easily implement multi-system independent boot

  

With the simplification of system installation, it is not difficult to make a multi-system coexisting computer system. However, if things are not easy to maintain, they are prone to problems. How to achieve multi-system startup and maintenance is a headache. It is reported that if the startup file Bootmgr or BCD startup configuration has problems, it will often lead to both systems. Inaccessible. However, don't worry, you are lucky today, encounter a master, the master will teach you to use XRLDR (a lightweight multi-boot management tool) to achieve WinXP, Win7, WinPE three systems independent start method and skills.

Implementing WinXP Stand-Alone Startup

Everyone knows that WinXP is started by "C:NTLDR", for users who install Win7 after WinXP, we only need to change the hard drive master boot record to NT52. The format is fine. After entering WinXP, copy the downloaded "bootsect.exe" to the C drive, then start the command prompt tool and lose "c:bootsect.exe /nt52 c:”, when the screen appears "Bootcode was successfully updated on all" The prompt for targeted volumes.” indicates that the master boot record was successfully changed to NT52 format. Now restart the system will automatically load NTLDR to start WinXP (the Bootmgr boot manager interface will not appear again). For users who install WinXP on the basis of Win7, do not use the above command to change the master boot record, otherwise there will be consequences of the inability of both systems to enter. After changing to the NT52 format, the hard disk master boot record will look for the NTLDR file in the root directory of the first partition (the NT60 format is looking for Bootmgr).

Implementing Win7 Independent Startup

After completing the above operation, restart the system and enter WinXP, and cut the entire directory of the file, "C:bootmgr” file, “C:boot” to D table of Contents. Then run the downloaded “bcdtool.exe”, click “ Launch Configuration & Rarr; Open ”, open the “d:bootbcd” configuration file. Select “Edit → Delete Startup Project> to delete all the original startup projects. Then select “Edit →New Vista Startup Project", select the new project, double-click the “device” item in the right pane, and change it to “partition=D:” (drive letter according to Win7 Change the specific partition of the installation), “description" (start menu display name) changed to “Windows 7”.

After the above startup file is moved and configured, as long as we can load “D:bootmgr”, Win7 can be started from the D drive (Bootmgr loading needs to be configured with XRLDR).

However, to say that this move Boot.ini still needs some technology after all, "content", for some new to get started, "novice" friends will inevitably have some "catch" & rdquo; . There may be some better untapped skills, waiting for your development, so that "novice" friends can easily achieve multi-system independent startup.
