    Dual Boot Menu missing after data migration


    [COLOR=rgba69, 69, 69, 1]Hello Community,[/COLOR]

    [COLOR=rgba69, 69, 69, 1]I migrated two systems W8.1 and W10 from two different HDDs onto two SSDs. The systems start well individually but I have to enter the BIOS to choose either one of them. Prior to the data migration, I had the dual boot function straight upon startup. Now it is gone. Question: would EasyBCD help retrieving that dual boot screen upon computer startup knowing that the OS are on two different SSDs?[/COLOR]

    [COLOR=rgba69, 69, 69, 1]Thanks.[/COLOR]

    Dual Boot Menu missing after data migration

    Dual Boot?

    I can help here iv had both i used partition magic to split my HDD and i installed vista on one and xp was already on the other only problem is id watch out if i were you for some reason vista does not like to dual boot iv seen this on a couple of my machines and my buddys. so step one have xp installed step 2 find a partitioner of your choice i dont know of any except partition magic and the one included on xp...only thing is i dont think the one on xp will even partition them...then pop in your vista DVD and select the drive of your choice....the only thing i can think of that causes vista to hate dual booting sooo much is that when their are 2 OS's installed xp uses its own prog to list them on boot well vista uses a totally diff boot loader than the previous os's and i think they conflict the problems i hade were the standard missing windows folder missing HAL.dll and the nt one dont remember the name.....that and after your done vista and boot into xp things didnt like to start correctly specially if you scan disk with vista.
