I set up a dual-boot system as described in Q306559. On the
C hard drive I was using Windows 98 SE on a FAT volume. On
a second hard drive partioned into drives D & H I was
using Windows XP Professional, with both drives formatted
as FAT volumes. This worked great for about a year until I
reformatted the C hard drive as FAT. When I rebooted, I got
a blank screen with two spades showing.
I tried to reinstall windows 98 SE on the C drive, but when
I inserted the original OEM boot disk, I got this message
"Disk I/O Error. Replace the disk, and then press any key".
I get the same error even if I try and install XP on it.
How do I now make the D & H volume a bootable windows xp
professional volume while preserving all of my data?
How can I install any OS on drive C?
