Good Evening, Fellow Members,

First, I would like to thank all of you for affording me an opportunity
to resolve the following issue. After going through many of your
postings, I am confident that someone would kindly help me out of this
predicament.

ISSUE:

Since my XP hard drive is corrupt, I have been using it as slave on a
WIN 98 machine to access its content. I would now like to install an XP
CORP edition on that corrupt drive using WIN 98 machine. Neither XP nor
WIN 98 machine boots from CD-ROM. Is there a way to resolve this issue
without compromising the data and programs on that (corrupt) drive?

Best Regards,[SIZE=7]

*P.S.* I have also used the same (corrupt) hard drive on a WIN 2000
machine(*); however, since this machine (*) acting upon me, I moved the
hard drive to WIN 98 machine.
