How to do shortcut bat files to choose next login OS - dual boot 7 - 8
glnz:
4wd - This is very educational, and I am very thankful you just posted the warning directly above. I have just taken my first look at these commands - my start at this level. By the way - what I see has a few more lines than yours -
custom three times
nx
sos
etc.
Well, this seems a bit dangerous, no? Maybe I should try your iReboot suggestion. UNLESS there's a way to do a bat file that simply repeats my steps A) above (not B which just blew up on me).
I have a lot to learn about Win 7 and 8 before I can feel that I'm back at my level with XP - and even there I was just a dangerous noob. And just now my playing with msconfig has caused TWO BSDODs on shutdown, which I seem to have corrected with a System Restore to this morning (that says it did not take 100% - oh well).
Many thanks! It took me six (?) years of fussing with XP to feel confident I could repair blow-ups. Feels like I'm back at the start. But this IS a start.

Post up the output from bcdedit /v and I'll have a look.
Otherwise, in iReboot just select the top option in the menu which will cause it to reboot to your chosen OS after choosing it.

4wd - Unfortunately, the PC with my Win 7 and my Win 8 doesn't have email or network connectivity yet so hard to copy and paste the bcedit /v result - but I will come back here when it's more set up and let you see.
Meantime, I downloaded EasyBCD and I can see how that can do the same thing (I think).
Many thanks. Really superb info from you. You will hear from me again fairly soon.
