Re Win Vista screwed up my XP

Thx for the replay. I did try what you suggested, but vista insists there is no problems. Anything else I can try (that does not involve floppy drive & disk?)

>Your Vista DVD has a "Repair your computer" option. You have to boot to
>the DVD to use it. See:


>How to automatically repair Windows Vista using Startup Repair
>http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tuto...torial148.html


>Try the "Repair your computer" > "System Recovery Options" > "Startup
>Repair" option at least three or four times, if it doesn't succeed. From
>experience, sometimes once is not enough.


>Then download VistaBootPRO, which will help you edit your Bootscreen, etc.
