[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 384101, member: 24160"] Sorry, don't know enough about Mac's to help in the situation. It does look like your installations are probably OK and have an issue only with the boot manager. Someone should come along that can help get you back into OS X. Don't need to worry about the windows drive letter. It will be C: once booted into XP. When booting from the disk, it is going to assign drive letters based on the position of the partitions on the drive. E: will be your OS X partition, F: your XP partition and am guessing C: is probably the boot partition, though I don't know if Mac's use a boot manager in this way. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
