XPe Disk damage

[Dean Macinskas]

Hello,

I created a 600mb partition on my hard drive, built an image (of my
development machine, a Dell 2400) using target designer, copied it to that
partition and tried to boot it. The XP Embedded logo appears, then a BSOD
saying that "PROCESS1_INITIALIZATION_FAILED". But when I tried to boot my
original NTFS XP partition, I found it converted to a logical partition;
when I converted it to primary and set it active and tried to boot it I get
"NTLDR missing".

So, two questions:
1. How do I get my NTFS partition bootable again?
2. What does the BSOD screen mean? What failed, and how do I fix it?

Thanks for any help.

1. How do I get my NTFS partition bootable again?

I do not know what you have done. But if informations on disk are not
relevant to you then just repartition and reformat it. After that place new
XPe files.
If your original XP partition is on development computer disk then upps. Let
us know we might be able to figure it out what have you done.
