If windows is not starting automatically you may have to take some more dramatic steps edit the msdos.sys make sure it's pointing to the windows diretory (use attrib msdos.sys -r -s -h from the root directory oposite when your finished editing) change the bootgui line to equal 1 add it if its not there(BootGUI=1). If that doesn't work edit your autoexec.bat to automatically start windows with: win as the last line To keep from getting the bootmenu, change the bootmenu line to equal 0. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, February 28, 2000 3:48 PM Subject: Re[2]: [newbie] just re-install windows...over it > Except that the mbr is fine as he is getting the Win98 boot menu. > > > just put in a win98 boot disk and run fdisk /mbr and that will rewrite the > > maste rboot record for windows 98. > > > > > > Alot easier than reinstalling windows. > > > > Mark > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: "Kit" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > To: "Mandrake Linux" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Sent: Monday, February 28, 2000 12:13 AM > > Subject: [newbie] just re-install windows...over it > > > > > > > hey Ty is right...just re-install windows over what you have now...it > > > should re-write... > > > the MBR...and things will be back to normal... > > > > > > -- > > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > > > ICQ# 7110071 > > > > > > HomePage: > > > http://kwg.virtualave.net/kwg > > > > > > http://kompukit.dyndns.org > > > (personal webserver,does NOT run 24/7) > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Ty C.
