Sorry, no one made coffee yet this morning. That should be fdisk not format.

I have had this issue on a workstation, the only solution I found was to run "format /mbr" from a Windows 98 bootdisk. What this does is completely wipe out the MBR. Then when you try to boot, the BIOS should realise there there isnt one assignt the correct drive letter (I believe it defaults to C) and they it should find your ntldr and other boot files. I did it on my Directors machine. I know there is a Q reference to this, but I don't know what one. Oh, and it worked like a charm. chuck -----Original Message----- From: BW Brandt Ward (5320) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, June 05, 2002 4:07 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: OT: MBR Recovery? My exchange server's boot record is toast...only boots with floppy...without..give the missing or bad ntloader message... anyone have any luck copying the backup boot record over the corrupt one? If so, using diskedit or something else?
