A '''boot.ini''' file is vital to older [[Windows]] [[operating system]]s.  This file is read by the [[computer]] when it is started up, so that the system is initialized properly.  This kind of file was last used on [[Windows Vista]] systems.  All newer Windows systems use Boot Configuration Data instead, which is more versatile.<ref>http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/what-happened-boot-ini-file#1TC=windows-7</ref>

The following is personal workspace. Once content is ready, I will migrate it to the appropriate location. I may use this for any number of purposes, but generally it will be used for drafts.
Please to not change the value of this content. If you see a typo or some other small problem, feel free to change this. For anything else, please ask first. Thanks!
