Jump to PostHi,
It sounds like you still have an old copy of XP on your system somewhere or at least a reference to one. There are other ways to fix this but I think this one might be the easiest.
First create a system restore point.
Jump to PostThats normal. BCD (The windows 7 bootloader) is installed on the MBR. When you choose Older System, it chainloads NTLDR for booting XP.
I had the same thing to get Vista, XP and NT4 to work together (with them all chaining off eachother).
