Do you guys have any tip?
You might want to check the drive lettering that you show in MCC harddrake with the drive lettering that shows up in lilo.conf. Possible that the lettering has been reordered and it is trying to boot the wrong partition for Windows. You might be able to do a simple edit and fix it. Why not post the contents of your lilo.conf and your fstab here so that we can see it. -- Bryan Phinney Software Test Engineer
