    Im trying to dual boot vista n xp on one drive. I had it going for a few days and a overclock must have corrupted my hd. So I had to reinstall xp. I got xp going then vista was out. So with xp running i reinstalled vista. vista now works but when i select xp at boot menu i get ntldr missing or corrupt. i read numerous stuff on web. i used bcd edit vistabootpro, but no luck. heres my current settings
