Ok. I obviously screwed up by not disabling goback
before I attemtped to add another hd. i messed up the
install of a 250 gig hd so I reverted back to my 40g.
However, windows wont boot up past the initial windows
screen. Says it cant find autocheck, then give a quick
fatal message which I found has to do with goback. Have
run win cd to reinstal xp, wont let me use the 37g
patition. Then made 40g slave and 16g master. Installed
xp on 16. boot up sees both drives. disk management sees
both drives. Device mgr sees both. 40g has no letter
assigned and cant assign one. thru looking at several
things it appears that goback is the culprit. any way to
remove it and will this allow me access to data on 40? I
know, I know, dummy why didn't you back up data?
