How to restore the Windows XP bootloader

For this you will need your Windows XP installation CD. Boot into it now.

You will get to a part where it asks if you want to repair or recover. To do so, press “r”.

If prompted, enter your Windows XP administrator password. This will leave you at at a command line, so type in the following two commands:

Code:
fixboot

Code:
fixmbr

Then type

Code:
exit

then remove your XP cd. If everything has gone well, you should come to your XP bootloader.
