Open the boot.ini file with notepad. Look at the entry, particularly in the
default position and see if it matches where XP is. rdisk is numbered 0,1,2
etc and partitions 1,2,3 etc.
I'm not on my dual boot computer now, so I can't copy a line here, but
partition is pretty easy as you can look in disk management and see which
partition it is on, the rdisk usually corresponds with that in disk
management. Don't know if you have more than one drive, anyway.
