Viperius Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 I am sad to say I have to remove X86 from my schools laptop its the dualboot menu causing the problem. I just can't have it there so my question is - How do you remove the Darwin boot menu? I insalled x86 on another laptop and when I tryied to remove it by deleating the mac partition it gave me a "non system disk error" Is it possable just to reghoast the HD to my orignal backup?

Hagar Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 You don't give a lot of detail, but on general principles, you want to delete your MacOS partition, expand your (presumably) Windows partition to the full size, or, like you say, ghost your backup back to the original disk, & then wipe the boot sector, or master boot record. From the sound of your post, I think you're looking for fixmbr or fdisk /mbr (XP or DOS, respectively) If there's a smoother way to do this, I'm sure some kind soul will post it here.

sheepdog43 Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 When I went to dual SATA I had issues with dual booting (before I had one IDE, and one SATA). Boot Magic (comes with Partition Magic and Norton System Works 2005) solved all my dual boot issues.
