Hello.
 
I installed WindowsME on a second HD(after installing XP), I did that because XP hate my USB and i have to use the CDR. Now my problem is that i cant make a dual boot, if I want to boot ME i have to edit the bios and disable the HD that XP is in, and that is very anoyeeng(is that the right word?).
 
My boot.ini file is like this
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect
E:\="Windows Millenium Edition"
 
When i try to boot ME the screen stays black, nothing happens, can someone direct me to a good third party bootloader?
 
Thanks in advance!
