hello everybody

i did something really stupid. i'll give you the full story

yesterday i started with reinstalling my pc , xp off course :)

then today i had an idea. why not making a ghost
so i made a ghost of my drive d were xp is on but if forget that the drive were i was putting it on is drive c.

so most of the people who are reading this will be rolling over the floor :)
cause i have overwritten my bootloader. pretty stupid huh

but at the moment i can start pc with bootdiskette in xp
with those three files on it boot.ini ntdetect.com ntldr

know i want to restor my bootloader i have already formatted c again

and started to try the recovery console
i could already add my xp in the boot ini , but how can i get my bootloader back to what it was
?????
i just want my pc to start up in xp without having to put a diskete like i am doing right now

hope somebody can help me

thnx and hope to have this shitty problem fixed as soon as possible

:p
 
thnx

thnx but i found a solution

i have started an xp install on an other partition, then canncelled it.

started up with my boot diskette , modified my boot ini

and it worked again

because when i started the new installation windows had rewritten my bootloader.
then i just modified the boot.ini to my other partition and then removed the temporary files of the new install wich i did not needed.

:D

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
