0 I'm attempting to automate a deployment of Windows 7 on the C: and Windows XP on the D: This needs to be the order of the dual boot. I open SCCM and create a task sequence that starts winPE and formats the Single HDD into two primary partitions I apply my Win7 image to the Specific Logical Drive letter c:\ Apply Windows Settings and Apply Network Settings to join it to the domain then drivers. This works and I have my 2 labeled partitions. However when I attempt to add the XP OS to the Specific Logical drive letter D: 7 no longer will boot and it goes directly into XP. XP isn't working properly either. I cannot load mmc and I get CLSID errors. Both task sequences work independently but I cannot get this process automated. Is there a script that I need to run to let the BCD know where to go? Should I try installing XP 1st on the D: Partition then 7 on the C:?-Shane

If I understand this correctly, got into winPE, you applied the 1st OS, Rebooted, inserted the Add--> General -->Run command line and in the command line you placed: REM CMD file used to add for /F “tokens=3 delims= ” %%i in (’bcdedit /create /d “Windows XP Test” /application osloader’) do set NEWGUID=%%i bcdedit /set %NEWGUID% device partition=D: bcdedit /set %NEWGUID% OSdevice partition=D: bcdedit /set %NEWGUID% path \windows\system32\winload.exe bcdedit /set %NEWGUID% nx OptIn bcdedit /set %NEWGUID% locale en-US bcdedit /set %NEWGUID% inherit {bootloadersettings} bcdedit /set %NEWGUID% systemroot \Windows bcdedit /displayorder %NEWGUID% /addlast Then applied your 2nd OS?-Shane

Excatly, I haven't tried it with Windows Xp it could be that you must repair the BCD store afterwards.
