dual boot but lost vista boot loader

Sorry if it is repost. I searched thru and I couldnt find anything closer to my issue.
I was running XP on c:\ and Vista beta 2 on d:\ for while and worked great. But I had virus on my XP partiition and I had no choice to format c:\ drive and reaload XP.
Now that I am running XP back on c:\ but lost the vista bootloader on c:\. I still have the vista drive d:\ and the copy of c:\boot directory. Is there a way to load the bootloader of vista into c: without reinstalling.
I tried pronetworks vistabootloader and I dont see any option of creating the boot loader. I see the option for deleting the bootloader for vista.
Please help. -- Chins

Yes you can fix that.
You need to modify your boot.ini on your c drive.
Assuming you have 2 physical drives and that your boot ini may not exactly refelct mine.
[boot loader] timeout=30 default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS [operating systems] multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /FASTDETECT /NOEXECUTE=OPTIN /USEPMTIMER
Add this line to it at the bottom.
multi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows Vista" /FASTDETECT /NOEXECUTE=OPTIN

Yes you can fix that.
You need to modify your boot.ini in you C:\ You can do that by showing hiden files and unchecking its read only status.
it should look close to this
[boot loader] timeout=30 default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS [operating systems] multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /FASTDETECT /NOEXECUTE=OPTIN /USEPMTIMER
Assuming you have 2 physical hard drives add this line at the bottom.
multi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows Vista" /FASTDETECT /NOEXECUTE=OPTIN
If you have 1 physical drive with multi partition where x is the partition number.
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(X)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows Vista" /FASTDETECT /NOEXECUTE=OPTIN
You can remove the switches if you desire.
NOTE: your boot.ini may not look exactly the same as this example.

If your still having trouble, I ran into very similar instance. I had to install XP to reset my drive permissions and ownership which got rid of the new Boot selection. I tried editing my boot.ini in XP but my system would just freeze up. I ended up poping the Vista Cd in my drive and went into the repair section of the cd and then went to do repair under booting. Fix the problem in about 3 or 4 minutes.
