The following detailed description:
[Boot Loader] System Loading Section
This part is very simple, only two settings. That is "Timeout =" and "Default =".
Timeout = 30 menu Shows stay wait time
It is the default operating system when the user does not perform any operation after the system starts the boot menu. The default setting is 30, and you can set a time according to the situation. If the user installs a multi-operating system, only the fixed operating system is used, only the default operating system is selected, and the 30 after TIMEOUT = can be changed to 0, so that the system start boot menu is displayed.
DEFAULT = MULTI (0) Disk (0) RDisk (0) Partition (1) / Windows default system
The default system is that the delay time is automatically entered, and the partition (1) refers to the first partition, usually C: disk, Windows is your system folder.
Still again, Multi (0) - which IDE interface (0 is the first, 1 is second)
Disk (0) - For the value of 0 brackets in the IDE hard drive, the value in the sisc hard drive parentheses is 1
RDisk (0) - Main Display: The main disc is 0, from disk 1
Partition (2) - Guide partition, start from 1-C disk, 2-D disk, 3-disk
If you want to change the default operating system is d: 2003, then this piece of content is partition (2) / Winnt
[Operating Systems] Operating System Section

Multi (0) Disk (0) RDisk (0) Partition (1) / Windows = "Microsoft Windows XP Professional" / FastDetect
MULTI (0) DISK (0) RDisk (0) Partition (1) / Windows This block is the same as the "default system" modification method, = "" The content is the name of the system when the list is turned on, which can be arbitrarily modified And also support Chinese!
/ FASTDETECT This part is a startup parameter, and "add one half-width space / parameter after", you can add a plurality. The following is a detailed explanation of each parameter.
/ FASTDETECT: Quick detection, many websites are recommended to modify to / nodetect (but this sentence may be wrong, no nodetect this parameter) / SafeBoot: Safe start, start HKLM / SyStem / CurrentControlSetControl / Safeboot Drivers and services in HKLM / SAFEBoot Then, you can follow three parameters Minimal, Network or DSREPAIR. Minimal and Network allow the system to be launched under the network connection. DSREPAIR requires the system to transfer the settings of the active directory from the backup device. Another option is Minimal (Alternateshell), which allows the system to transfer the shell program specified by HKLM / System / CurrentControlSetsafeBoot / Alternateshell without using the default Explorer.
/ NOGUIBOOT: Does not load the VGA driver, the boot process and the blue screen information when failing are not displayed.
/ Bootlog: Write the log into the nnbtlog.txt file.
/ Basevideo: Start using standard VGA mode, which is mainly used to display the driver failure.
/ SOS: Displays its name when the driver name is transferred, and it is better to use because of the driver problem.
The above mentioned is a method of direct modification, in fact, it can also be modified by other methods.
