Alright, so this isn't pertaining to dual boot but the problem comes from dual boot.
Basically, I had xp 64bit on C: and E: was 32bit (both on the same physical drive). Now I stopped using 64bit some time ago. I load up my XP disc and basically, erased partition C: Please keep in mind that this part was on purpose. What I didn't realize was that the boot.ini and all the boot files were stored on C: Now I can't get E: to boot. I even went into the recovery console to try and repair it there. I can select C: or E: when I start recovery console but when I try any bootcfg command, such as bootcfg /scan, E: doesn't come up. The only thing that is recognized as a Windows install is C: (Which is where I installed xp 32 bit just now after I f'd up 64bit. I want to use XP on E: because that where the registry is and the OS I've been using for the past 8 months). As far as data, that's all on D: so it's not a huge deal if I have to reinstall windows, just a pain in the ass.
Any advice?
