Hi,
I had one hard drive partitioned into C,D, and E. There were two
instances of XP Pro installed, one on C and one on D.
I used the options in boot.ini to choose an OS on bootup.
I ran out of drive space and bought another drive. I installed it, and
used Partition Magic to resize C,D and E.
Now if I try to boot into D:/windows, the system freezes on the
windows XP logo.
I used bootcfg in System Recovery mode, and it listed my windows
installations as being on C and E.
Here's how my boot.ini file looks:
[boot loader]
timeout=5
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Vanilla" /fastdetect
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Strawberry" /fastdetect
Why is partition(2) suddenly pointing at drive E instead of D, and how
can I fix the problem?
Thanks!
