I did this up to the final step (without success) where it says:
"If EasyBCD fails, that means a process has locked your BOOT folder. Manually delete this folder with a Live CD, recovery console, or other method, then try Type Three again."

Do you happen to know how to delete this folder in a recovery console? I can (of course) boot to my Vista CD--but am really unsure of what to put in the console window to achieve this.
