I can also boot windows with the GRUB boot floppy. Of course you can't. In order to boot windows, the windows boot code has to be in the MBR. This isn't what you asked for. You asked us how to clear the MBR, and we happily showed you. NOw if you want to boot windows, you'll have to use your windows repair console to do something like fix-mbr or some such. I'm not too familiar w/ windows anymore though to be of any more help. -- Jesse Keating RHCE MCSE http://geek.j2solutions.net Mondo DevTeam (www.mondorescue.org) Was I helpful?
