But before I try this thing can you recall trying to boot WinXP after running (win95)fdisk /mbr? In my case the boot.ini file on the c:\ drive actually opens giving me a choice of WinXP and the Recovery Console but clicking one or the other just leads to a blank screen. Seems if I can reach boot.ini all should be OK windows-wise. -mw ____________________________________________________ Start your day with Yahoo! - make it your home page http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
