VistaBootPro is a program for adjusting advanced boot parameters in Windows Vista. You can backup and restore portions of the system registry. Additionally, there are security tools for preventing unauthorized data execution.

Boot settings

The main purpose of the tool is fixing corrupted or missing entries in the Boot Configuration Data (BCD) table. This system component is required for the correct Windows loading. It contains records about all installed operating systems and their boot priority.

Users are able to change the OS names in the list, reorder them and delete entries left from previously installed systems. Moreover, there are options for changing the main boot drive, tuning the timeout duration and adding new Windows versions to the list.

It is recommended to backup all system registry or at least its BCD section before performing any operations. VistaBootPro contains an instrument for this. Alternatively, you can utilize third-party solutions such as This PC Tweaker.

Advanced options

Several additional boot parameters are customizable. There are checkboxes for enabling Boot VGA functionality and toggling GUI Mode. Debugging tool is included for detecting and fixing potential startup issues.

Several compatibility options are available. Users can limit the CPU speed and RAM amount loading Vista on newer PCs.
