Nope, a reinstall or reformat will not fix a "boot partition missing or corrupt" as neither touches the machines ability to boot the HD. You must use the original XP CD & boot with that then press R & go to the Recovery Console. In the Recovery Console type "fixboot". ----------+---------- Wayne D.
