I have installed window 7 and XP on my laptop. Both were running fine. Last Week I make window xp is default operating system and set time to display operating system to zero. Now I want back the time to 30 second but i can not enter into window 7 now. kindly help me how can I select window 7 in screen.
Changing the Timeout value to 'zero' doesn't make sense when you've got a dual-boot setup as it means you will not get the chance to choose which OS to start. Load Windows XP
Click Start > Run
Type msconfigClick the Boot tab.
Change settings back to what they were.
Click 'OK'Restart.
But how to access window 7 boot from window xp because through msconfig we only access window xp boot options not window 7
Toggle F8 during boot & see if you get an option to choose what operating system. If you get the Safe mode etc screen you have missed the screen, reboot & try again.
Not get to window 7 on pressing F8
Go to step 7 here.
