How to add another operating system for Dual boot in Windows 7 boot configuration

Hi,
I have dell laptop with excellent configuration. On which i had windows 7 Home premium on C Drive and Windows server 2008 on D Drive.
Now i upgraded my Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit to Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. But after fresh installation of Win 7 Ultimate my dual boot screen has gone and Win 7 is getting start directly.
Now i want to add my Windows server 2008 again for dual boot which is still on D Drive.
Can anyone please tell me how to add windows 2008 boot option in boot configuration to active my dual boot options.
Thanks

1) Using bcdedit.exe /enum
To enable the computer to also boot Windows 7 you again use bcdedit.exe with the following command which will copy the current Windows
Boot Loader details for Windows Server 2008 to Windows 7.
 bcdedit.exe /copy
{current} /d "Microsoft Windows 7"
 bcdedit.exe will
respond with something like the following.
The
entry was successfully copied to {................................}.
Using
bcdedit.exe /enum to again enumerate through the current entries within the BCD store you'll see the newly added entry.
Before you can use the newly created Windows boot loader configuration, you'll need to change the partition for Windows 7 using
the following two bcdedit.exe commands.
bcdedit.exe /set {.................................} device partition=D:
bcdedit.exe /set {.................................} osdevice partition=D:
If you now reboot the system you should now be able to boot into either Windows Server 2008 or Windows 7.

  • How do I add another operating system for Dual boot in Windows 8.1 boot configuration?

    Hello,
    I am trying to create a dual-boot Windows 8.1 Pro system to allow both 32bit and 64 bit Windows 8.1 versions.  I currently have Windows 8.1 32bit installed.  Appreciate some background on how to add 64bit Windows 8.1.
    Thanks, in advance.

    The easiest way is to do this (this assumes some technical knowledge as well as access to the currently installed operating system and the 64bit install files)
    1: launch diskpart from run or cmd
    2: select the current OS disk using "select disk 0"
    3: select the current OS volume using "select partition x" where x is the number of partition (you can use "list partition" to see all current partitions)
    4: enter "shrink minimum=xxxxx" where xxxxx is the size in megabytes you want to new OS to have
    5: Enter "create partition primary"
    6: Enter "format quick fs=ntfs label="Windows x64""
    7: Enter "assign letter y"
    8: select your current system partition using "select partition x" where x is the number of partition. If you have a UEFI install on a GPT disk, this partition will be formatted in fat32. Otherwise, it will be a 100mb NTFS partition
    9: Enter "assign letter s"
    10: exit diskpart, and open up an administrator cmd prompt
    11: Enter "dism /get-imageinfo /imagefile:e:\sources\install.wim" where e: is the drive letter that you have your .iso mounted in. If you have the iso extracted, you can just point to the current extracted area then \sources.install.wim. This will
    show you a list of indexes that the .wim file supports. A standard retail version of the .iso will have Windows 8 Pro be index 1. If it is not, just change the index number in the next command.
    12: Enter "dism /apply-image /imagefile:e:\sources\install.wim /index:1 /applydir:y:"
    13: Enter "bcdboot y:\windows /s s: /f UEFI" (if you are using a MBR disk and not UEFI with a GPT disk, enter /f BIOS instead)
    14: Reboot, select the x64 partition in the menu that comes up, and you are good to go!
    You can also just create a new partition using disk manager then boot to the x64 disk and install it to the new partition, but that runs the risk of accidentally installing over something that shouldn't be if you select the wrong disk.

    Not 100% if I understood the question, but if you uploaded your template to the Master Gallery and the corresponding .js file has been created, you can open the refinement config panel and specify the result type you want to map to your custom template.

  • How to add another Chapter Page for more then 6 chapters & add right arrow?

    Hello,
    I created a project via the Magic iDVD option and it worked great and added multiple chapter pages for more then 6 chapters. Now, I manually added a submeno off of main and added 6 chapters but I need multiple pages since I have 40 chapters... I can't figure out how to add another chapter page and create a RIGHT ARROW navigation button for the next pages...
    I also looked at the map view and see that on the working pages there is page connected to page... I also cannot find a way to add a page connected vi map view...
    I have searched the forum but none of the answers were clear on how to do this... any help would be appreciated...
    Thanks! T.

    Adding the submenu is easy...making the button for it a "right arrow" is not.
    You can keep adding submenus to other submemus by navigating to the appropriate menu and then choose the "add submenu" command from the iDVD project menu. This can be done in either normal or map view.
    However, this creates a "folder" button, (or other things in some themes) not a right arrow. I agree it should be a choice! My 2nd best solution is to chage the folder button to a "text only button" and label it "More Chapters > >"
    Another solution (3rd best??) is to use command-shift-4 when you are one one of your other menus that DOES have a right arrow, and take a mini picture of the arrow. Then choose one of the oval menu buttons on the button pane, and drag this tiny picture onto the button. Re-size it to make it close to the same size as your other buttons. It will have a funny edge on it from the button style, but it will look like a right arrow.

  • How, specifically, do I download the latest operating system for my Mac laptop?

    How, specifically, do I download the latest operating system for my Mac laptop?

    Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
    If it's a Core Duo Mac, click here, install the DVD, and run Software Update.
    If it's a Core 2 Duo or better Mac, follow the Core Duo instructions, open the Mac App Store, and try downloading 10.9. If you get told it's incompatible, go to the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion 10.7.

  • How many partitions and operating systems can you line up in BootCamp?

    A quick question, hopefully with a quick answer.
    How many partitions and operating systems can you line up in BootCamp?
    Are we limited to just 2, or can we have more?
    Say, for example, Mac, Win XP, Win Vista and Linux maybe?
    Thanks in advance.

    VPC does not run on Intel Macs. If you wish to use virtualization on an Intel Mac see this:
    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
    1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows XP w/Service Pak 2 or Vista. Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
    2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, or Vista Ultimate. Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    3. VM Fusionand Windows XP, Vista Business, or Vista Ultimate. VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows. The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
    5. VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris. It is not yet fully developed for the Mac - some features are not yet implemented - but it does work otherwise.
    6. Last is Q. Q is a freeware emulator that is compatible with Intel Macs. It is much slower than the virtualization software, Parallels and VM Fusion.
    Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system.
    See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion.
    Boot Camp is only available with Leopard. The Boot Camp Beta that was used with Tiger has expired and is no longer available for use. So contrary to the other poster's comment, Boot Camp isn't truly "free." You must purchase Leopard to get it.
    You can upgrade XP to Vista without having to make any changes to the Boot Camp partition. Vista can either perform an upgrade install or erase the Windows volume before installing Vista. You don't need to do anything to change the partition via Boot Camp. However, if you need to enlarge the partition, then the only way that can be done is to first use Boot Camp to remove the partition. Then use Boot Camp to make a new, larger partition. All data from the Windows partition will be lost.

  • Is it possible to run two different versions of Apple operating system (for ex. 10.6.8 and 10.9) on a MacBook Pro, either on the same disk or from an external hard disk? If so, where would I find the details?

    Is it possible to run two different versions of Apple operating system (for ex. 10.6.8 and 10.9) on a MacBook Pro, either on the same disk or from an external hard disk? If so, where would I find the details? (In order to be able to use the older applications no longer supported in 10.9)

    If you want to add a second partition to the internal drive (in Disk Utility, select the drive, then open the partition tab and just click the + button), you should first be sure that you will have enough room to accommodate whatever the second volume will be. I am currently doing this for Snow and Mountain Lion.
    To get to whatever volume is not the startup disk, restart and hold down option/alt at the chime, which will bring up a selection of the two volumes. Use the left or right arrow keys to select it and then hit enter/return.

  • How to add a search help for a field in Screen Personas?

       I just started learning to use a Screen Personas, and I want to know how to add a search help for a field.
       I found a property in the help document named "IsLookupSupported". Is it the key?  But I saw it was gray in the field I created, and its value is "false". I could not change it.

    Hi, Tamas,
    I found the reason. The function Z_WEBRFC_READ_DATA_SH had a string concatenation error.
    CONCATENATE '{"results":[{"key": "shlpname", "value": "' l_shlp '"},"key": "fieldname", "value": "' l_field '"}]}' INTO htmldoc-line.
    The correct code is like:
    CONCATENATE '{"results":[{"key": "shlpname", "value": "' l_shlp '"},{"key": "fieldname", "value": "' l_field '"}]}' INTO htmldoc-line.
    Another question is, I can't get any words in Chinese from WebRFC. It returns error when I try it. How can I configure it?

    I just tried to reset my iPad...then couldn't reset it.  I don't know how to install the operating system on it again

    Is this how you reset?
    1. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together)
    2. For about 10 seconds
    3. Until you see the Apple logo (very important)
    4. Ignore the red slider
