Ok so I originally had Windows 7 and I just installed Windows XP Professional on a partition other than my Windows 7 and I still have my Windows 7 partition with all the files still on it but when I boot up my computer I only get the option to boot into Windows XP. How do I make it so that I can boot back into Windows 7? I want to be able to boot into Windows XP and Windows 7.

And I dont think there a way to add dual boot entries from windows 7 system repair disc.
I have found easyBCD the easiest for dual booting windows 7/vista and xp.
