If this is an XP system and the MBR set by XP, then you can boot with the
(any!) XP CD/DVD into the rescue console and use fixmbr command.
I know that, but so far I have not found anyone here at the IETF meeting
that has one. I mean, who carries such a CD with them to a week-long
meeting? I have a couple of options to pursue still. LIke the network
helpdesk vendor who is local...
However,
you indicated earlier there is some encryption in place, I don't know if
that is already in effect at MBR level. If it is, this method or the one
mentioned in the article won't help.
My corporate tech guy told me the first step is to get a standard XP mbr
back on the system, and then he believes he can talk me through getting
the encryption working again.
