Dual Boot Windows 10 & Windows 10 Insider

[RedMelon]

I have been trying to duel boot Windows 10 & Windows 10 Insider but it hasn't worked. First I have a licenced, upgraded version of windows 10 that I clean install using the auto activate feature, this means I do not delete or format the partition, does this matter? After clean installing full version of windows 10 I install the Insider version. I do the installation skipping licence keys if they are asked for so I can activate Insider later and after completing this I realise that the first version of windows 10 can no longer be booted to, it goes straight to the Insider build.

Any help?

What is your partition structure like? All on the same drive? And UEFI?

Only one disk:
Partition 1: (system reserved)
100MB NTFS
Primatry

Partition 2: (windows 10 Insider, boots to this partition)
630GB NTFS
Boot, page file, crash Dump, primary

Partition 3: (Windows 10 release, can't boot to this partition)
300GB NTFS
System, active, primary

Partition 4:
450MB
Recovery

BIOS mode is in legacy (Award Software International, Inc. F1, 26/07/2012)

Thbak you! This worked, the problem is it boots to the selection but instead of the windows selection, it goes to the old looking one, I believe it's the bois version called grub?

Any help making it the windows one because it comes with lots of options that I find helpful (and it looks better)
