Hi All, Partition 5 is what the linux partitioning add... Partition 6 is LINUX - Why it shows up as Microsoft Basic I dont know. Partition 7 is the normal swap I have tried booting partition 1 and it says. "an operating system wasnt found." When booting partion 3 I get a screen "WINDOWS BOOT MANAGER" windows failed to start. A recent hardware change might the cause it wants a wnidwos install disk and says FILE: \Boot\BCD status 0xc0000225 Thoughts? Jerry Jerry
