Any ideas on how to get past that section. I dont really want to reload the whole OS as it takes forever.

685022 2008-07-04 02:30:00 Did you try a blank Password as per Post #10 ? wainuitech (129)
685023 2008-07-04 02:51:00 Thanks Speedy.
Tried that. Just goes to
C:\Windows

Reloaded Ubantu thinking it would reset itself. Ubantu went on OK and I can see all the widows files. Still cant boot into windows.
Can open the boot.ini if that info helps.

685028 2008-07-04 04:13:00 Just to check: Did you answer Yes when fixboot asked you to confirm? Nermal (7077)
685029 2008-07-04 04:42:00 I answered yes then it came back and told me that the new bootsector was successfully written. Colpol (444)
