Hi dragonfx,


eh... I have just haved a kind of similar problem... somehow a partition of a new harddisk screwed up my boot thingie...

I don't know if you can solve your problem the same way... but try booting up from the WinXp CD-rom... and when you get the oppotunity select repair...

those the Windows installation you want to repair... write your password...

I can't exactly remember the commands... but try the help command, as I recall the 2 commands you need is something like "fix boot something" and "Fix MBR" (MBR = Master Boot Record)...

if that doesn't help... eh... I'm not quite sure what to do at the moment... but if you somehow can't get it to work, and you e.g. have to format or have lost your data... you can properly recover your data with this freeware data recovery software... "PC Inspector File Recovery"... -->
