I was resizing my work XP Pro laptops hard drive partitions with
gparted on the System Rescue CD, and it locked up while I was running
an "strace -p PID" (got the PID by running "ps -ax | grep parted" -- I
was trying to see why it was taking so long).

I (stupidly!) rebooted it, and now all I get is a black screen.  I
booted into my BartPE disk (with Partition Dr on Hiren) and "fixed"
the bad partition, but I'm still just getting the black screen when I
boot up normally.

I booted back into the System Rescue CD and tried "ntfsfix /dev/sda1",
but it's wanting me to run chkdisk from Windows.

So I tried booting back into BartPE and booting into mini-PE, but for
whatever reason, the disk I have is a bad burn!

Any suggestions on what I might do (assuming that chkdisk in BartPE's
mini-PE doesn't work)?

Roger
