You cannot use ME, 98, 95 boot disks if you are using NTFS

NT has a boot disk?

On XP wouldn't you use the recover concole?

for the boot disc, i thut every 1 was using fat32. if not, then use XP's recovery console. it is easiest thru a win 95/98/me boot disk tho.

and as for windows nt boot disk, i am not sure, i thut it would have it.

and...

Last time I used Resource Hacker, it took me almost an hour to restore my computer, since my desktop wouldn't load and it takes me a good 10 mins to boot into safe mode.

did u just save the file, or save as sumwhere else, then replace it?

if u just saved it, then u will get problems.
