   Hej Holger,   
       
   I almost missed this one, so forgive me if I slipped up on the formatting.   
       
    RN> There was a boot manager in Windows 10 Technical Preview, but it   
    RN> isn't in the final release of Windows 10.   
       
   HG> Well, as you may know, you can always use the BM of OS/2. It will be   
   HG> shut down by the Windows installation but can be re-instated by running   
   HG> the FDisk of OS/2.

   There is a Boot Manager in the final release.  It takes a little fiddling with   
   to get it installed, but it works fine.  I can now boot to either W7 or W10.    
   Some of my programs won't run in W10, so I'm forced to do it this way, rather   
   than wait on M$ to produce a fix for a program (MS Money) they no longer   
   support.  You should read some of the "answers and solutions" posted on the M$   
   web site.  Good grief!   
       
   HG> That of course means that you have to be able to install OS/2 on the   
   HG> machine. That may be possible by modifying the start diskettes to use   
   HG> the drivers by "Daniela".   
       
   I figured that, but I can't install Warp on this machine.  I've tried.  But I   
   was able to get the Boot Manager from Windows 10 to behave.  (-:   
       
   H.A.N.D.   
       
       
   Regards,   
       
   Roger
