I live out by Rowlett and need the help of someone on this side of town with command line knowledge to work the magic. Please let me know if you can help. Nat Both  972.412.1354

Unless I'm unaware of someone else in the area, I probably live a close 
to you as any (in Mesquite).  Problem is that right now I'm very busy. 
Have you looked at the multi-boot article on the NTLUG Web site?  Might 
start there.  Based on your post it sounds like you installed Linux last 
(which is fine).  If you don't already have it you probably need a 
'chainloader+1' entry in grub.conf (or menu.lst - whichever applies).
