Hi, i was recently trying to get iPC Mac Os X 10.5.6 working on my laptop.

I made a partition on my harddrive and attempted to install Mac os on it.
I didnt get it to work so i just got rid of it.

Now, How do i get my Windows XP to boot normally?
everytime i open my comp it just ends up at a blinking underscore.
I tried booting the windows install CD, go into Recovery console

tried fixboot, fixmbr, but still ends up at the blinking underscore!!

I have set the windows xp partition active using fdisk in the mac terminal.

Can anyone guide me to resolve this problem!

Thanks in advance!!
