I want to reinstall XP. But when I'll do that, the XP installer will over-write the NT6 boot-loader meaning I won't be able to boot into Windows 7. I don't want to install Windows 7 anew as well (despite the fact that there are a few bugs in it) and was wondering if there was anyway around this, what came to my mind was that after reinstalling XP, I:
- Use the Windows 7 install disc to repair/fix the MBR
- Manually add the Windows 7 boot option to the boot menu using EasyBCD.
I'm pretty sure either of the 2 above techniques will work, but just wanted to confirm before jumping into it. Also open to any other ways.
Thanks.
