  3. Performing Dual boot on the computer (Windows 10 and windows xp).

    Hi Vaibhav,



    You will not face any system performance issues on performing dual boot by loading older Windows version first (Windows XP) and then the latest Windows version (Windows 10) on the computer.



    To perform dual boot on the computer, you first have to create partitions to load both the OS onto the drives. Create disk partition by following the steps below and perform dual boot on the computer.




    • Press Windows logo + R keys on the keyboard to open
      Run command, type diskmgmt.msc and press
      Enter.


    • Right click on OS(CMy boot process performs a second machine reset when selecting the other Windows OS :) hard drive and select
      Shrink Volume.

    • Allocate the disk space in MB and click on
      Shrink. An Unallocated drive will be created.

    • Right click on the Unallocated drive and select
      New Simple Volume option. Follow the onscreen instructions and provide a drive name/letter in the process.

    • Perform dual boot and check if the issue is resolved on the computer.

    Boot loop after performing System Reset.

    Hi,



    I realize that you are facing the boot loop issue, let me assist you.

    I suggest you to follow the steps below and perform automatic repair using Media creation tool and check if it helps.



    Step 1: Create ISO for Windows 10

    Refer to the below link to create Windows 10 ISO.

    Download Windows 10



    Step 2: Perform an Automatic repair



    The Automatic repair can detect and fix the issues that prevent the computer from working normally. After you have a Windows 10 installation disc/USB, follow these steps:




    • When your computer starts, wait for the manufacturer logo to check the option for boot menu, it will usually be F12.

    • The boot menu key might differ with each manufacturer. If you are unable to find the boot menu key, you may refer the user manual.

    • Restart the computer, when the manufacturer's logo is displayed, keep pressing the Boot menu option key to enter the boot menu and change the boot option to CD\DVD ROM (in case you create DVD). Select USB in case you
      create USB.

    • After you boot your computer using Windows DVD or System Repair Disc, a black screen appears with gray text "Press any key to boot from CD or DVD". Press any key.

    • Select the correct time and Keyboard type.

    • Click Repair your computer in the lower left corner.

    • Click on Troubleshooting, advanced option and then click Startup Repair.


    Hope the information helps. Kindly write back to us for further assistance on Windows, we'll be glad to assist you.



    Thank you.
