    Hello,
    I tried searching the forum for this problem but didn't find a solution.
    I replaced my hard drive yesterday, I did a complete image (backup) of the original hard drive, put it on to the new one but the dual-boot didn't work (WinXP + Win7). OK, so I took my Windows Vista DVD and did startup repair, Windows 7 works but how do I get Windows XP to work again?
    Thanks,
    GvidoR

    What's BCD? Is it Boot CD?
    If so which one? Hiren's Boot CD? Which Tool?
    I already tried FixBoot (FixMBR) from Hiren's Boot CD.. it did nothing at all

    No, it's a bootloader editor for Vista, I believe that Windows 7 uses the same bootloader.

    Use EasyBCD to edit.
