VistaBootPRO beta 3.1 (adjust the boot configure of vista)

The PROnetworks Betas Team and Staff are pleased to let everyone know that VistaBootPRO, the original program developed by our PROnetworks Betas Team and the Beta Testing Forum, is now available for download! Thanks to all the suggestions from our members and users, we have completely redesigned VistaBootPRO version 3 to incorporate the features you have asked for, and due to some great feedback this latest version 3.1 includes some updated fixes. Written using Microsoft C# for added reliability and stability, VistaBootPRO 3 now includes built-in diagnostics to help find and correct errors in the BCD store, a more comprehensive view of current settings, and a number of new utilities and advanced options. VistaBootPRO 3.1 offers full support for the latest builds, including RC1 (Build 5600) and Build 5728.

The logical and easy to use VistaBootPRO interface makes it easy for both the novice and advanced user to make changes to the Boot Configuration Data store (BCD) without having to use the complex command line application bcdedit.exe

Advanced settings include backing up and exporting your boot loader configuration, making advanced "functional" changes like adding an operating system to the boot menu, repairing the Windows Vista boot configuration data and modifying other settings which will affect the way that Vista boots.

VistaBootPRO can also be used to make "cosmetic" changes to the Windows Vista boot menu such as changing the name of the Operating Systems shown and changing the default boot operating system.

VistaBootPRO 3.1 may be used from within Windows Vista and Longhorn Server, as well as legacy operating systems including Microsoft Windows XP (Home, PRO, x64 and MCE 2005), and Windows Server 2003.

For those who have had to use the command prompt based bcdedit.exe in the past, you will be impressed with the ease of use and functionality that VistaBootPRO provides.
