[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1351944, member: 46727"] Even if your Windows partition is formatted as FAT-32 you won't be able to boot it from an external drive. If your Mac's optical drive is not working, you're dead in the water. There is no way to repair the Windows partition without a working optical drive and using your Windows XP CD. [/QUOTE]
