Fixed Vista. Now XP not loading.

[g_goyal2000]

Hi guys.
I just bought a Sony laptop today.
It had Windows Vista Basic pre-installed.
I installed Windows XP Pro on another partition to make a dual boot configuration.
Upon installation, XP overwrote Vista's boot record & replaced boot loader.
So I fixed Vista's boot loader thru repair option on Vista DVD.
But the problem is, upon fixing, it overwrote XP's boot record & I'm not getting Vista's boot loader.
In short, I can't boot into XP as I'm not getting a choice menu.
How can I fix it??

Here is tutorial how to modify boot loader

Once Vista is installed and the system reboots, you’ll be presented with a boot menu with two options: “Microsoft Windows Vista” and “An Earlier Version of Windows”.
XP & Vista - Boot Menu
This is perhaps a little bit bland, so you’ll probably want to change it. Here’s where one of the new features of Vista comes in, and it’s not so terrific. In Windows XP if you want to modify the bootloader, just right-click on My Computer, select Properties, go to the Advanced Tab, and click Settings under Startup and Recovery, then click Edit. This opens a local file – boot.ini. It’s just a standard text file and you can change pretty much anything. Unfortunately it’s not that easy in Vista – you can still navigate to the Startup and Recovery settings, but all you can do is select which operating system is the default and modify the timeout settings.
To edit Vista’s boot manager you have to use the command line BCDEDIT utility. To access BCDEDIT, run the Command Window as an administrator and type in BCDEDIT.
Unfortunately BCDEDIT isn’t an easy tool to come to terms with, especially as it’s purely command line-driven. So, a great tool to use here is EasyBCD by NeoSmart Technologies. EasyBCD offers a GUI frontend to BCDEDIT, and makes life much easier.
Once Vista is installed, call up the browser and navigate to the EasyBCD download page - download, install and launch the application.
To configure the bootloader go to “Configure Boot” – you’ll see the two entries, for XP and Vista. To change the name of Windows XP, just overwrite “Earlier Version of Windows” with “Windows XP” and click Save Settings.
