[QUOTE="chscag, post: 732118, member: 46727"] Sounds like it may be a damaged or corrupt Windows boot sector. What you can do is use your original Windows install CD to do a repair. Follow these instructions carefully (you do not want to accidently overwrite OS X): [url]http://www.michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairinstall.htm[/url] Again, use caution - make sure you're repairing Windows, not OS X. I suggest making a backup of your OS X installation prior to doing anything. Regards. [/QUOTE]
