I just had a problem with a Windows XP computer - I used V-COM's Partition Commander to
resize the NTFS boot partition. Horrors, Partition Commander gave me an ugly error that
it had an internal error, I had lost data, bye bye. System became unbootable.
I was finally able to boot from a Partition Magic 8 CD, which allowed me to fix some HD
errors (but I had to reboot from the CD and fix 3x). This allowed me to boot, which
allowed me to schedule a CHKDSK for the next restart, which fixed over a HUNDRED
errors(!), which fixed the system with only the loss of some unimportant data files.
Now, during the days of Windows98, I kept a bootable Win98 floppy with Norton Disk
Doctor to fix corrupted unbootable hard drives.
My question - does anyone make software that can boot from CD or floppy that can fix a
corrupted (unbootable) NTFS hard disk, like CHKDSK or NDD can? That would be a nice
product to add to my repair utilities.
