Howard....You need NTLDR ( no extension) bootsect.dos, ntdetct.dos, not sure
about any others...... your best bet may be to reinstall but chose repair.
instead of a clean install?
you might also run the install the recovery console form the XP CD..then run
fixmbr when you boot to it..I can send you those files off-list if you
wish..not sure if that'' work, but....
HTH,
Bruce

Subject: [triadtechtalk] Dual Boot Menu Don't Work!
I have a win98SE/XPPro dual boot on my computer. I ran win98SE install
over my present install and now I still have the menu, but it will only open
98. If I try to run XP, it restarts the computer. I did save the boot.ini file
and reinstalled it after the 98 install and both menu items show up. I believe
there is at least one more file that I should have saved and reinstalled ...
but I didn't. Any help appreciated (even if I can get to open XP again).
Thanks ...
Howard
