Thanks Rick Forrister and Michael Martinez for your
advices...

I guess that in the linux part there is no problem.
I put the installation cd and get in on rescue mode
it told me about a 'chroot /mnt/sysimage'
and do the changes..  

I did this but nothing else.. when I rebooted it load
windoze again.     how can i repair the lilo?
