stuck in windows xp Hello, i followed your 4 step tutorial and was doing great until i got to step 3. :( i have a brand new HP Compaq laptop that came with windows vista home premium and no disk, only the preinstalled backup drive for vista. -AMD Turion (64x2) Mobile Technology TL-50 -1.61 GHz -NVidia Geforce Go 6150 -1 gig ram -no floppy 2.5 drive -DVD/CD burner when i got to step 3, i have no disk to load the original boot loader. :( windows xp (E:\) will load perfect. no problems but far as it is concerned i have no vista or (C:\) drive at all. :( i dont know where to go from here. :confused: i see all these messages about using some kind of bootfix software but when it comes to that i am lost, no idea what to use...if i should try or not...or where to go from here. Any help u can give would be appreciated. thanks Colecat7 ps...thought i would post that the only way i could find to fix my xp vista not loading problem as above was i installed vistabootpro Windows Vista Support and News - PROnetworks Technology and did the bootload and added the information for windows to see both drives and it works great now....i can dual boot and using xp online once i find the driver for my hp. thanks for all the posts to help me find what i needed. THANK YOU!!!:sbiggrin: :sbiggrin: :sbiggrin: :icon_mrgreen: :icon_mrgreen: |

you will need to supply more information. How did you resize your C: partition, with what program? Did you create a new partition on the 'x:' partition, eg format it with any file system? |

the drive labelling will be different under XP, it will not be labelled x: Do you have XP and Vista on the same partition? This is a big no-no. |
