    You'll have to forgive me, my understanding of English isn't quite what it needed to be.

    Hi mojo,

    Not clear on that at all.

    A new HD doesn't have anything on it - so what are you repairing?

    Regards - Charles

    I don't know why but putting the new harddrive in allowed me to access the Windows XP recovery consul where I could not before. Maybe it was the Caldera software on the Seagate CD that got it going...I don't know.

    When I tried to setup XP on the first try after the new drive was installed I got an error message saying XP could not install so I rebooted and did a fixmbr at the Recovery consul and everything started working - why? I don't know but I'm happy it did. :D

    Rockster2U, I can see where what I posted may have been confusing...sorry.
    My frustration is fading :eek:
