How to fix lost BOOT.ini startup file

  

When using the computer, we often use some modification software to optimize XP startup speed. These software will modify your registry without exception, and even modify the system startup file of the dual system user, resulting in dual system startup file. BOOT.ini is missing. When BOOT.ini is lost, we must build another BOOT.ini to restore the system startup.

boot.ini is a system file that needs to be queried when the system starts. It tells the startup program that the computer has several operating systems and where the location of each system is. To restore it, click the "Start" menu, point to "Programs → Accessories → Notepad", open "Notepad", and type in the notebook:

[boot loader]
timeout =10
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1 )\\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows 98" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\\WINNT="Microsoft Windows XP" /fastdetect

Then save it as a file named boot.ini, and save this file to the root directory of the C drive.
