I've Windows 2003 Enterprise installed originally on C: drive.
I wanted to installed Windows XP on another partition (for compatibility
with some programs).
This turned out to be a big mistake and my Windows 2003 couldn't boot.
I found and followed the advice on KB322952, but that didn't fix the problem.

I end up have to completely repair my Windows 2003 installation (from CD).

But now after that, I'm still unable to boot from Windows XP partition.
If I select "Windows XP" from my boot menu, it would now complain that I
have a corrupted ntoskrnl.exe.

In any case, anyone know if there is a correct way to make it work, so that
Windows 2003 is on my primary partition, and Windows XP on my secondary
partition?

Thanks a lot,
Clement

er another hard drive, remove the current primary drive install xp and the
put that one back in, will require reboot to switch i think and no garantees
it will work, brothers did a similar thing when they installed new system,
but i do jot think they took the c drive out, just somehow istalled it on
another he#ard drive allready in there and formated, try that may work
