But then it says skipping autocheck and everything seems to boot up fine. I have the same problem where I can't the can't find autocheck error. But I think a better way is to format all my drive and reinstall everything again after I save the data that I need. Only problem is some of my programs don't run anymore and I think I have to reinstall them. I give up on the third one since there's only some songs in that drive. After this I found the TestDisk.exe (I wish I found this before, it might have fixed everything in the first place) and it fixed two of my drives.

If you don't see the repair option, try to use TestDisk.exe, which I mention above, or PTedit.exe (which is downloadable for free and included in Nortion Antivirus Resuce Disk and PartitionMagic 8 resuce disk)to modifiy the PartitionTable, change the "Type" to 07 (which means unhide NTFS, You can find your TYPE using "set type" button in PTedit if you use other format instead of NTFS).Īfter that I was able to boot to Windows XP but my other 3 drives are gone.

I suggest try this at last after you have tried all I said in this message) I mean using XP CD to boot and don't hit "R" for repair, instead hit "Enter" to install XP, go to lincese agreement page, press F8, then you MIGHT have the option to "repair previous version of Windows" or "just F3 to quit". Luckily I didn't erase all my data in my drive. But this time I was able to repair my XP using XP CD (repair XP I don't mean using "Automated Recovery Console" which is kinda technical, even I did try some comment like fixboot, fixmbr. So I tried to reboot but still XP didn't bootup. Later I tried Partition Magic 8 resuce disk (you have to have PartitionMagic to make that resuce floppy) and once it loaded in DOC, it realized there's error in my boot drive and fixed the partition table.
I tried Norton Antivirus 05 rescue bootable disks and hope it would fix my drive somehow but no luck on that (or it did, but I just didn't notice, cuz still unbootable after that). And I really feel that people are so kind to share their expertise to help the others on this problem (especially those who made the program and let people use it for free, like PTedit.exe and TestDisk.exe, they should really get credits). I finally got back most of my data (not all as I'm still trying now in day 2). I received all kind of error message after accidently renamed all my drives' name and defraged my drives with errors and power outage (really bad luck).Īfter 2 days (I mean really 48hrs) searching online trying all kinds of possible rescues. I had the same problem before didn't able to repair my C: drive using XP CD, and I didn't want to format my drive either. Very useful program to boot up my XP without any programming knowledge Just remind me to change the boot.ini back when I delete the old partition. I am sure that there is a perfectly logical explanation for this behavior, there usually is, but I don't know what it is.Īnyway, it works, and I hope this of help to someone with the same problem. So mayby now Windows remembers two active partitions and acts accordingly. It might have been caused when I used Ghost to activate the partition because it failed to hide the other one. And it didn't the first few times that I switched partitions. The first partition is hidden so the bootloader shouldn't see it and shouldn't start counting there. strangely enough, because I don't think it should. default=scsi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\winntĪnd that worked. default=scsi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\winnt With the browse function in Partition Magic I copied the boot.ini file from the hidden partition and changed the lines that look like this: I saw a mention of boot.ini on a website somewhere and thought it was worth looking into. And like with some others here, checkdisk found errors but didn't solve my problem. After trying some tips from this forum I saw that my new partition was visible and the old partition was hidden like it should. I then changed back to the old partition, using PM, and I was treated to the dreaded Autochk not found message. This went fine and it booted to the new installation. At some point I decided to use Ghost 9 to restore an older image I had made and let Ghost make the partition active after imaging.
I used Partition Magic to switch (make active) between the partitions. I am reinstalling my computer with XP and to be sure I did this on a new primary partition.
