crakit9 Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 ok so i installed osx86 on a seperate partition than xp...well now at the darwin screen it asks me which os to boot from and when i choose the xp partition i get the NTLDR or w/e is missing. (dont worry all my files are backed up...plus osx works great) so what should i do? would reinstalling windows onto that partition make that error go away and it would work good? if that doesnt work would VMware fusion work?

Suzie's Soliloquy Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 NTLDR is the Windows NT bootloader; and it looks like it's corrupted from your error message. Yes, reinstalling Windows WOULD fix this error, as it would reinstall the bootloader; just be careful not to rewrite your partition table Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suzie's Soliloquy Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 I'm not sure which version of VMware Fusion you could use; early versions tend to cause kernel panics on OS x86 when running Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suzie's Soliloquy Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Hate to admit it; but I use the BCD bootloader bundled with Vista; and Grub to load Ubuntu when I need to Which I really should upgrade someday soon Hang on, my siggy's out of date XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
