I think you can<BR>>boot from a Win98 boot floopy, if you have one, and run the "fdisk<BR>>/mbr" command mentioned on the above site. I think that should work<BR>>fine for WinXP. You can also boot your WinXP disk with the recovery<BR>>console and run "fixmbr" as John Cox suggested. There may be issues<BR>>with this if you have upgraded to SP2 and still have an SP1 install<BR>>disk. If this is the case, I suggest going the fdisk /mbr route. <BR>>There are also other boot loaders around that you might
be able to<BR>>install in Windows if you have trouble with the above suggestions.<BR>>I think Mohamed Ameur misunderstood what you wanted to do. You want<BR>>to have one WinXP machine (this one) and one dedicated Linux machine<BR>>(another box), is that right? If so, you should be able to just move<BR>>your Linux harddisk over to the new Linux-only box without<BR>>re-installing (or at least it's theoretically possible, I've heard of<BR>>cases where that has worked).<BR><BR>>Jonathan</P>
<P>Thanks guys. That website seems helpful, so I think I'll be able to figure it out from here. I guess I'll try putting the windows boot loader back on. You'll know if I come across any more problems. Thanks! JKW</P></div></html>
