| One solution is to edit your boot.ini file, which controls OS booting for windows.
Be careful when you do this and make sure you create a backup incase you delete the wrong one. It's a hidden system file located on the root of C.
Another way to get around this would be to format the hard drive and relaod the OS from scratch. | |

[boot loader]

default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0
)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partiti
on(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partiti
on(1)\WINNT="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect | |
