If you have played around with test installations of other operating systems on your computer on other partitions or disks than your main OS, you may have run into boot problems when removing these other test installations. If you have, like I have, had Linux installations, you may be left with a non-working GRUB boot loader and maybe even no Windows CD to fix the problem. Well, this happened to me today, but no worry. There are easy solutions. Microsoft made a Windows Vista Recovery Disk, which Neosmart are hosting as torrent files. They can be found here:
All you need to do now is start it up, select repair instead of install, open the command prompt and type:
C:\>bootrec /fixmbr
…and you’re back in business.
