As you should. Type bootcfg /? and it will tell you what to do in the last paragraph. WARNING: BOOT.INI is used for boot options on Windows XP and earlier operating systems. Use the BCDEDIT command line tool to modify Windows Vista boot options. -- . -- "stuckFree" wrote in message news:43b86425-f562-4c5f-864a-171c602b58b4...

I still can't figure out how to view the boot.ini / bootcfg file setting by using the switches in cmd by typing bootcfg /?

Because you don't have a boot.ini. Boot.ini is for Windows XP and earlier as bootcfg tells you in the last paragraph. It tells you to use BCDEDIT for Vista and latter. -- . -- "stuckFree" wrote in message news:a4a0cb93-2901-4cd0-84e6-f00317128a65...

The bootcfg file content is totally different from windows xp. BCDEDIT option is the same as i double click the boot.ini file in windows xp?
