Re: 2 wondows versions detected on pc startup?

What happens if msconfig finds an OS that is not listed in boot.ini?

Read this....

[[Check All Boot Paths - This button will check the boot paths for all
operating systems listed in the BOOT.INI to ensure they point to a valid
operating system. ]]

How is it going to find anything NOT listed in the boot.ini?

Will it automatically make a corresponding entry in boot.ini? I ask this
because many times people advise use of msconfig's "Check all Boot Paths"
to "fix" boot.ini if boot.ini doesn't enable multi-booting despite the
presence multiple Windows OSes.
