Boot in Windows XP, open Control Panel, then System. Click the Advanced Tab, then Settings under Startup and Recovery. You can choose what OS you want to default and adjust how long the PC waits for you to change your mind so you're not forced into one OS before you can decide.

I twin booted domicile windows XP with domicile windows 8 CP. How I did it replaced into downloaded it as a ISO and put in it on a various partition, then I used EasyBCD to regulate the boot. i'm notably specific in case you boot the domicile windows DVD from bios, you are able to choose the partition you desire. yet you will might desire to confirm you have a partition to apply!

Get a boot manager instead of editing the boot.ini file... Works alot better... OR if not then read this one, it will apply to you....
