post your boot.ini as an attachment, and I should be able to edit it to suit your needs

You could use something like GRUB or whatever, however I've never personally tried installing GRUB with Windows. I also think you can change the cable-select on the second drive to master, although I realise this is by no way a permanent solution.

Thanks, but I'd rather not mess with system files.
