I have had XP installedfor a few weeks now and everything was fine. I tried to boot into it yesterday and when I held the option key down at start-up only the Macintosh HD was there.
It still is on my desktop and it shows up in disk utility. When I look at the detail information in disk utility, it says that the XP partition is NOT bootable.
Any ideas of how to change this back or why it did this?
I did install the trial version of MacDrive, but I wouldn't think that would make a difference.
Thanks for any help, I need to get into Windows!
