If the cloning program did move the XP partition, and isn't XP

rather than partition-relative. If the partition it's on starts at a

it does boot most of the way.
Hmm. Guess we're beyond that point then. Maybe there are ways to use
a rescue CD to get at the system logs? I'd have to research that more.
If you can boot a SysRescCD disk, you can use the
partclone.ntfsfixboot command to fix the magic number.
Is that a rescue cd downloadable from somewhere?
Yes. <http://www.sysresccd.org>www.sysresccd.org - I find it
infinitely useful when doing almost any computer-related task. It's
not for beginners, though.
Thanks i had a look and have used gparted before.
Couldn't see partclone that you mention its not partimage is it?
