12 Doesn't work. The WinXP boot console opens alright but
13 that's all. As I've said elsewhere, boot.ini *is*
14 accessible along with ntdetect and ntldr -- they just
15 don't work. An XP boot disk doesn't work. I used PM 8
16 to look at the drive and the entire 120G drive is
17 flagged w/ error #110. This, I'm told, can be fixed
18 using findpart.exe to list the partitions and then
19 ptedit.exe to fix them. But when I try I'm told these
20 are 32bit apps, not windows, but "new" DOS. But if I
21 boot to a DOS prompt using Win98, surely that's a
22 DOS32 environment?!?!

24 But a clue perhaps. Booting XP in safe mode a bunch of
25 multi(0)disk(0)... lines scroll by ending with
26
27 multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS\inf\biosinfo.inf
