crofttk Posted June 28, 2004 Posted June 28, 2004 Assuming you have all of your data backed up, are you booting from the WinXP CD and allowing it to reformat C drive which it should recognize as Partition 0 ?
tevfik82 Posted June 28, 2004 Author Posted June 28, 2004 i did not boot from cd, winxp is on the harddisk (at fat32 section) i start the program from there, first step is succesfull but i can not go on. I can not format c because my important datas are still there..I have downloaded the "ntfs boot disk" from this adress ,i hope i can do something, did u use that program?
ali23 Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 try this. buy another HD, install the OS on the new HD, then you won't lose anything.
faisalcom Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 Check the version of your xp files, the first version have problem of deleting another driver which happened to me in the beginning of win xp release !
D.Celt Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 XP cant see the C: drive because it has loaded the fat32 file system. During text setup, XP only loads 1 file system. To get around it, boot from the cd. XP will load the ntfs file system & you should be able to see both drives.
