Default Multi OS Boot Problem


In my computer I had in C-drive: win 98 and in D-drive:win XP. I had loaded acronis os selector which gave me problem and when I uninstalled it I could boot only in Win 98. Thenafter by using Win XP CD I applied fixmbr and fixboot commands. Now I can boot only in Win XP. During booting even though the dual option is thrown, the option for Win 98 only goes back to restart. Please tell me how can I successfully enjoy the dual boot again.

@T159
What to edit? That file has the usual two options. Even during booting I can see the dual boot options. Only after pressing enter while the Win 98 remains highlighted, the computer goes to restart.
