I have a big problem. I installed xp pro on my desktop 4 days ago and everything was working fine. I set up 5 different logins for each family member and as of last night when I went to bed everything looked ok. Today when I woke up I had MBR 40 40 40 40...... all accross the screen. same thing after reboot. so I poped in the xp disk and tried to use the restore panel... no panel just a c:\ prompt. Help gave me a list of commands so I tried fixmbr
It says it was corrupted and it fixed it. still 40 40 40...
I tried the xp disk again to mabey reinstall xp and the partitions are weird...what was the D: drive is now the c: drive..what was the c: is now the D: with an unknown partition type. It was ntsf.
Anyone have any idea what might have hapened?
Could it be that my HD just took a crap? I installed XP because win98 was giving me error messages on boot, but xp seemed to work really well for the last 4 days.
Thanks.
