Windows NT fails to boot after W2000 dual boot install! Stop 7B (ntfs.sys ? )

[Marvin Lichtenthal]

I removed the scsi(0) commands from boot.ini as someone from MS suggested.
My current boot.ini file is:

[boot loader]
timeout=5
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(5)\WINNT
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(5)\WINNT="Microsoft Windows 2000
Professional" /fastdetect
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(6)\WINNT="Windows NT Workstation Version
4.00"
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(6)\WINNT="Windows NT Workstation Version
4.00 [VGA mode]" /basevideo /sos
C:\="Previous Operating System on C:"

My C: drive contains ntbootdd.sys 18KB 8/2/1996 9:30AM.

On my NT Workstation Partition I see no ntbootdd.sys driver.

Should there be a ntbootdd.sys driver there?

Thanks for your help.
