Re: Windows Boot Mnager Problem
Thanks for all your suggestions, i did a complete re-install this time, i
didnt follow the disc upgrade 100% this time, i put the disc in first and
restarted my pc, doing it this way gave me the option to re-format the hard
drive and install vista on its own with no XP hich was great, it soon solved
the problem and now runs alot better too.

I downloaded a BIOS patch also and everything works very well. Thanks for
helping and taking time to read through my posts. cheers
