Many pastries were made commercially and sold on the local level, such as Moon Pies which were invented in 1917 in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and TastyKakes, invented about 1914 in Philadelphia. The first national commercial pastry was Chocolate Cup Cakes (1919), which was reportedly invented by the Indianapolis-based Taggart Bakery, which also made Wonder Bread.

Vista boot problem

Hi Guys. I am new to this forum, and new to vista, so forgive me if i ask stupid questions, but i have gotten an urgent problem.

I have somehow gotten installed some Grub booting up before it then tries too boot up Vista, sometimes, while still in Grub, displaying the message File not Found, and other times it manages to get to the windows menu for selekting safe mode or normal mode, but either way, it freezes and will not continue too boot.

Anyone got a tip on how to remove this?
I have allready trying to insert the disc, and sellect repair, but that doesen't work.

Deleting "Boot" and "bootmgr"

Apologies in advance for the lengthy post.

I started out with one partition, c:, with XP Pro SP2. Then I created a new partition, onto which I installed Vista Ultimate. This installed the bootloader onto the active partition (c:). I also wanted to install linux, so I created an extended partition with two logical partitions on it, one for root and one for the swap file, onto which I installed Ubuntu 6.10. This installed Grub into the MBR. So I had Grub loading either Ubuntu or the Windows Vista bootloader, which in turn loaded XP or Vista.

I was not happy with this arrangement, so I deleted the partitions onto which Ubuntu and Vista had been installed, created a small partition at the beginning of the drive (before the XP partition), and followed the instructions at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=260772, which worked beautifully.
