Ive just installed 7 pro 64 bit. I also have vista home premium 32 bit installed on the PC. after installing 7 i thought it would set up a dual boot, but it didn't. It just boots straight into 7. Anyone have any idea how I can access Vista and bring it up on a dual boot menu. Ive already tried a program called easy bcd, it didn't work.

Did you by chance install Win 7 on the same drive as Vista?
