And of course you are in the know. And posting CDO on top of this.

We cannot help you fix this because you haven't given us enough
information. What was the other operating system you installed? Where
did you install its boot loader? Give the exact error message you get
when trying to load Windows.

I'd suggest you ask on the private Beta Vista newsgroups. Obviously the
boot loader for Vista has somehow hosed your XP install, or perhaps
Partition Magic doesn't play nice with Vista and the partitions have
been damaged. I really don't know. You would have gotten information
about how to access the newsgroups for the Vista Beta when you got the
Beta.

OK, I'll see on the beta newsgroup.

So do I have to reinstall my XP Pro?
