Hi Folks

I've read through several similar threads here, but haven't found my solution.  I'd be very grateful for any help....

I run a dual boot (WinXP/Vista) system, normally with XP on the 1st partition of drive 0, and Vista on the 1st partition of drive 1.  I used the std method when installing Vista for the boot choices.

However, drive 1 has now failed, taking my Vista installation with it - dead!  I've managed to put a previously cloned image (phew!) on the 2nd partition of drive 0 (after WinXP), using a bootable CD of Norton Ghost.  When I boot, I still get the choice, but I can only now select WindowsXP.

How can I make partition 2 bootable, AND tell it where to find Vista?

I'm desparate on this now - can anyone please help?

Thanks
