Alt ctrl del boot error

[desolation777]

I resently partitioned my drives to run xp and linux, but after i couldnt get xp to boot, i deleted the linux partition using gparted. After this, i flagged xp as the boot os, but now I get an disk read error. Is there any way to fix this?

Have you tried popping in an XP install CD and taking a crack at it with the recovery console?

More specifically, start up the recovery console and try the 'fixmbr' command.
