I have an asus eee pc 1005hab with windows xp (sp3).
So I havent been able to boot windows and was getting the NTLDR missing message. I hooked up a external dvd drive and tried booting from a copy of XP home (sp2) in attempt to repair windows. I get windows set up to run and try to install windows but I have gotten the following message:
"The partition is either full, damaged, not formatted, or formatted with an incomparable file system. To continue installing windows setup must format this partition."
C: partition1 [unknown] 147581 mb (147581 free 0 on 152626 mb disk 0 at 0 on bus 0 on atapi [mbr]
So my question is, is there something I can do to repair the partition with out having to format/wipe out the info thats already on it?
