im not sure but for my experience, bual booting XP Pro and FC2 at
first shocks me because i tried it on my officemates PC not on mine,
so after the installation of FC2 was a big big sweat in my face. now
searchning for things about this problem and reading reading.. they
kept mentioning about the CHS .. CHS  .. CHS ... all i knew its about
hard disk .. so i did restarted the PC and checked out the CMOS .. its
on AUTO .. i tried putting it in LBA and .. what a surprise .. the
windows XP is not booting up ..
