Well I did copy over the boot.ini to the C drive, but I left out the "I Wrecked My Boot.INI File" I did change the backup to read 2 partitions which picked up my working copy of WINNT. So this post in coming from my computer whoo hoo, now... "I do solemely swear never to do another noob thing to my computer unless someone who knows more than I do tells me to!" Thanks for the help guys I owe you one. Xera

I tried that already I went into Bios and set it to boot from CD, and the Win2K cd isn't starting up.

I did a stupid thing and started messing with my boot.ini I have a dual boot on 2 drives, XP on the C and 2000 on the E, I was trying to repair the 2k and did an install on the D. Went to edit the boot ini for the 2k on the E drive, and messed it up. Restarted and it's telling me This file is corrupt or missing ntoskrnl.exe I thought it would be an easy fix, I started up with a boot disk went into DOS and copied the file from the exsisting 2k install on the E drive. Did not work, I've also tried copying over a backed up copy of the boot.ini from the A drive to the D drive, that didn't work. Now I swear I'll never mess with my boot.ini again as long as someone can get me out of this fix! Xera
