Hi Troth, Yes, when I search the C drive for Boot.ini I find two, Boot.ini.backup and Boot.ini C:\Program Files\power Quest\Partition Magic 6.0. The question remains which file to use or is neither the right one. > All these files are located in the main C:\ root directory: > NTDETECT.COM > NTLDR > BOOT.INI > > These files, I'm not 100% sure, but they should most likely also be in = > the C:\ root directory. > BOOTSECT.DOS > NTBOOTDD.SYS > > -- <Please delete this line and everything below.> To unsub or change your email settings: http://www.freelists.org/webpage/pctechtalk To access our Archives: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PCTechTalk/messages/ http://www.freelists.org/archives/pctechtalk/
