XP? 2000?
Reckon there must be a typo / mistake in your boot.ini Why is Win2000/XP installed to c:\windows and not c:\winnt? Just make sure hidden files are shown (Tools - Folder Options...) goto the root of C: Open boot.ini in notepad, Select All and copy it to here Then we'll see what's wrong Thanks, Jim |

fatboyjim, XP installs to "Windows", NT and 2000 install to "winnt" by default.
