master / slave drive boot failure

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support (More info?)

Rebuild the Boot.ini file.

Boot the Windows XP CD and go into the recovery console. Run bootcfg
/rebuild from the command line. If you have missing or improper entries in
the boot.ini file, this should solve your problem.
