Windows Server 2003 View and manually configure Boot.ini files

Windows XP relies primarily on Boot.ini files to determine which operating system categories the computer displays during the reboot (boot) process. Boot.ini is set to the implied and System file properties by default and is identified as read-only.

Have you been making changes to boot.ini files lately? To ensure that you see Boot.ini files in Windows Explorer??? Older options (folder option) and select Show hidden files and folders (display hidden files and folders) on the View menu are you tired of the cumbersome operation of the command? What's more, have you ever forgotten to cancel a read-only property that you have before editing the file?

You can use command-line tools Bootcfg.exe to perform an edit operation on the Boot.ini file. You can modify the system wait time (the time Windows waits before selecting the default operating system) and add new alternatives to the existing foundation.

In Windows Server 2003, you can quickly and easily locate the Boot.ini file to verify or edit the Microsoft Windows startup configuration and change the advanced RISC calculation (ARC) path as needed. Alternatively, you can add a switch to the Boot.ini file.
