Disk Boot Failure, Insert system disk and press enter

Posted: 06-24-2006, 04:03 PM
Well I am just down to one issue with Vista 64. I can not boot
to any OS with out the Vista DVD in the drive. If I do not have it in it
will look at my CD roms and then I get this error message:

"Disk Boot Failure, Insert system disk and press enter"

I have to put in the disk and just reboot to get the OS menu
screen to
choose Vista or XP64. I do have vistaboot Pro and what I have I
have posted
below. CAn anyone help me fix this issue. Right now I have all
my hardware
working I am realy liking Vista.

Last week I installed Vista on the same HD as XP 64 and I had a
bad system crash. I had Nvida drivers kill it and some how even screwed up
my XP install. Both were taking 15+ min to boot up. they were on different
partions so I have no idea what happend. Vista is a beta so I back up
everything for just incase this happend.

So this weekend I cleaned both HD. When I did my install I did
XP 64 first and then Vista 64. XP 64 is on a IDE while Vista is on a SATA. I
am not sure if I have a BIO setting issue or a MS problem. It has been
driving me nuts.

Can anyone please help me on this?
