I had Windows XP on one of my laptops and installed Windows 7 on a seperate partition to see how it would cope. Well.... it doesn't cope at all.
I have the dual boot screen when I start the laptop and the default is of course the last O/S system loaded. i.e. Windows 7.
Unless I am quick enough to change the bootup, it tries to load Windows 7. And when I say tries, I mean 'tries'. Windows will load after about 20 minutes but is unusable. Nothing will respond. Nothing will function.
I cannot change the boot sequence on XP. I have to 'be in' Windows 7 environment to edit the boot sequence, but I cannot get there.
How do I either competely uninstall 7 or at the very least change the boot sequence without 'loading' Windows 7?
Thanks guys
