Disk Director Suite 9.0

How can I bypass the Acronis Loader that starts at boot up? The Acronis file appears to have been corrupted and at startup my pc halts trying to "Starting Acronis Loader" before it gets to load WinXP.

 

Hello agios44,

Thank you for using Acronis Disk Director Suite (http://www.acronis.com/homecomputing/products/diskdirector/).

You can remove Acronis Loader from MBR (Master Boot Record) by the following:

– boot your computer from Installation Disc of Windows XP into Recovery Console and run "fixmbr" command.

You can also use the 'mbrautowrite' utility in order to return your MBR to the initial state:

- Download http://www.acronis.com/files/support/mbrautowrite_en.exe file;
- Insert a diskette into the floppy drive and run the downloaded file;
- Once the floppy is written, boot the computer from it and confirm that you want to fix the master boot record.

Thank you.
