I'm cleaning up an older computer running XP Pro.
At one time it booted off a SCSI drive but now it boots off an IDE drive.
But if I don't have the SCSI drive listed first in the motherboard bios,
the computer will not boot and gives the NTLDR missing message.
NTLDR is on the IDE drive, which is the C drive.
Here is my boot.ini
[boot loader]
timeout=10
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn
I'd like to have the IDE drive listed first in the bios. I have a
feeling the computer seeks the SCSI first when it boots.
Suggestions?
Thanks!
