Ok here is the entire history. I know this should go back in tech problems but not many people look at that forum. ANyway here we go.
A few days ago I reinstalled BF2 and played it a bit. After playing i quit and then it froze...control alt del didnt work so i turned it off and went to bed. The next day when i got up and turned it on I got a Unmountable Boot Volume error. Needless to say this is bad ..Luckly i had a virtual os on a cd kinda thing and was able to transfer a lot of my files off by pluging in a friends IDE hard drive and transfering some files before re formating.
Well I move some files and then we re installed XP on the Sata WD hard drive. We partition it 30gb and a 90gb. THe 30gb space holds my OS. I boot up on it once and it works.. I cant remember if that was with the IDE drive still in there or not but it deff worked a few times. Anyway I bring it back home and dont set it up yet becuase its really late.
Today I get back from a beach trip and turn it on. Now I get a invalid Partion table error. Now I have been reading that I need to use a thing call FDISK to fix this? Is this correct or am i totally scrwed and messed something up again...
NOTE: Using this CD i have (Kinda like a fake windows that runs from a CD) I can still see all my files an the partitions seem to look fine. Could this problem be from a bios setup i have wrong?....or maybe i scrwed something up while messing around in the PC?
Here is my full setup..
MSI NEO2 Plat
AMD643500
6800GT EVGA
1gb Kingston
Onboard netowrking
160GB SATA WD..
ANY help is appretiated and much needed..thx
