OS selection during boot

[HELLBRINGER 0]

This is'nt really completely hardware related but this seemed the most appropiate location for it. And there are a lot of posters in here so I will most likely get a response faster.

 

Heres the deal. I have Drive C, drive C was reformatted. For reasons I can state later. It has Windows ME on it and Win2k (a reinstall). Both working fine. I also have Drive D. Has my original Win2k install, and was originally installed on D. The boot.ini (boot loader) has made my Drive C Win2k the default. I want my Drive D Win2k default. I know it still works cause I got into it now. But if I change the default OS (win2k) (same dir names) to partition 2 (drive D) from partition 1 (drive c) it does not work. So I have to keep default OS partition 1 (drive c) win2k active. And change to the other Win2k if I want the one I want (which I want default).

 

Following me here? I hope so. Good.

 

How do I do it so I don't get the blue screen? Do I have to slightly rewrite the boot loader? Here is my boot loader now. It has my drive c win2k not default and my drive d one default, the way I want it, but it doesnt work. If you know how to fix it go ahead. Or tell me. Thanks!!!! I really appreciate it.

 

Here is the boot.ini!

 

[boot loader]

timeout=3

default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WIN2KPRO="Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional"

[operating systems]

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WIN2KPRO="Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional (BACKUP)" /fastdetect

C:\="Microsoft Windows Millenium Edition"

 

I noticed putting the name after default does not show. It just says (Default) Windows 2000 so I don't know why I put that there but I did.

Try:

 

Code:

[boot loader] timeout=3default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WIN2KPRO[operating systems]multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WIN2KPRO="Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional" /fastdetectmulti(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WIN2KPRO="Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional (BACKUP)" /fastdetectC:\="Microsoft Windows Millenium Edition"

 

...might work.
