I'm working on the Limine Installer, and need to know something...

I have an old laptop with Win XP, and in the vfat boot partition it has /ntldr
I don't own any other old BIOS computers with Windows installed.

My understanding is that on BIOS-firmware computers, not UEFI, Windows 7 and 10 will have /bootmgr in the boot partition.

Could someone confirm this for me?

Is /bootmgr at the top level in the partition?
Is /ntldr still there?

From some online reading, /bootmgr is the new boot manager, starting with Win 7, but I think /ntldr is still there -- just info garnered from online reading.

And Win 10, same questions.

Hi BK,
My W7 & W10 bios installs have only /bootmgr at top level, no /ntldr.

same here.... I see bootmgr only. Dual booting Easys on a hard drive with Windows 10 and Grub4Dos on a BIOS system.
