You'll need to add the Windows XP entry to the BCD file in Windows 7.


EasyBCD will probably simplify the task for you, although I've never used it......and I'm not sure if EasyBCD is compatible with Win7 at this time, but it's worth a try.

EEviac...just so you know EasyBCD works in Win7...both 32 and 64Bit.
