NTLRD commpressed

[Felix]

Everytime I boot Windows an error appears that says:

"NTLRD commpressed
Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart"

I press Ctrl+Alt+Del and I get the same thing after
rebooting my computer. I cant get past this.

*This may be important: I am Dual-booting Windows XP Home
and Mandrake Linux with LILO. Bothe OS's are on a
different partition*

This problem occured just today. Linux is working fine.

Did you compress the Windows drive while working in Linux? If yes, reverse
that as NTLDR cannot operate when compressed.

Otherwise, you may want to do some reading here:

How do I reverse that if I did?

I don't know. Have never used Linux. Someone in a Linux newsgroup would
probably know.
