[SOLVED] In Windows 10 how to set my WinXP drive to be bootable?

[bhuether1]

Hi, I tried running windows 10 on an older computer and decided I have no need for Windows 10 on the computer and just want to revert back to WinXP.

I am in Windows 10 Disk Management and here is what I see

Disk 0
D: Primary Partition (this is where XP is)
Disk 1
G: System Active, Primary Partition
Disk 2
E: Primary Partition
C: Boot, Page File, Active, Crash Dump, Primary Partition

I am not trying to dual boot. I just want to get back into XP. As it stands now if I set BIOS to the XP drive to Disk 0 above I get 1234f: upon startup which I know is caused by the disk no longer having a boot record.

So I am just not sure what to do to get Disk 0 to be bootable again. I know in Disk Management I can set it to active, but then it probably will still not have boot record. Just trying to figure out best way to go about this so I can get back into XP, be it with Disk Management or command line.

thanks,

Ok, looks like I got it squared away with EasyBSD
