BIOS Direct Boot
Note: This does not apply to EFI firmware systems.
Grub2Win setup alters a Microsoft boot module on your C: drive or your "System Reserved" partition.
For Non XP systems, the module name is /bootmgr
For XP systems, the module name is /ntldr
The Microsoft boot module is replaced with a custom boot manager module designed to display the Grub2Win menu.
This provides a more seamless user experience by skipping the Microsoft boot manager screen.
Instead, when your machine is booted, it goes directly to the Grub2Win menu.
From the Grub2Win menu, the user can then select Windows, Linux or several other operating systems to load.
If you uninstall Grub2Win, the original Microsoft boot modules will be restored.
Since boot modules are being replaced it is important to have good backups of your system partitions.
This will ensure that you can recover your system in case of unusual boot problems.
