South Australia | | Think you really need the windows XP CD for this one unfortuantely.. even if it was just ntldr you normally use the "Fixboot" command on the XP disk to repair that error and then copy the NTLDR across again..
SOrry i dont have a simple solution! |

South Australia | | Perhaps download a bootable disk image from www.bootdisk.com and image a floppy etc. These images ususally have CD drivers so you can access your drive in DOS mode then run the setup/fix.
Another option is get FreeDOS from www.freedos.org and install that on a USB stick etc and boot the system up with it to do your repairs..
Cheers! |
