I run WinXP Pro and have recently installed a new hard disk. My partitions are as follows and are in order of creation.......
Disk 0 -
C: 10GB Primary NTFS - OS XP Pro
Disk 1 -
D: 12GB Primary NTFS - No OS
E: 25GB Primary NTFS - No OS
Z: 1GB Primary FAT32 - Command.com/Autoexec.bat, and NTFSDOS.exe
I have added the following line to the boot.ini file under the OS section.......
Multi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(3)\windows="MS-DOS"
As you can probably tell, I am trying to add a boot menu option to boot into DOS on the FAT32 partition with an NTFS reader invoked in the autoexec.bat file. Unfortunately, it doesnt work, as when selecting MS-DOS from the boot menu I get a message that it can't boot due to a harware problem/configuration issue, and to check the boot paths etc.
Can anybody help me solve this problem?
