Moved 2nd Xp, Won't boot!

Hi there,

I had to increase the size of C and then I moved (I used resize and reposition the partitions), C and another Xp installation E.

I've done everything booting DD10 with the CD's, everything went fine and I can reboot in C, but E won't start anymore.

Xp E would show me the logo on the black screen(the one with the progress bar), go as far as the blue screen with the welcome to xp and.....that's that!

Why? Kirill if you see this one you should know what I'm talking about, unfortunately!

Kirill, I also managed to kinda of sort out my windows management issue, deleting my empty partitions and using the cmdcms run a chkdsk on the entire volume. This is the result.

I'm going to try to rebuild the other partitions and see what happen.

One more question. I installedas suggested, snapapi, what is that exactly for and why I've got a folder in C:\program file\common files\Acronis now and a snapman.sys in my windwows\system32\drivers.

I uninstalled Acronis from windows and I only use dd10 and ti9 with the cd's.

Do I still need those files? And if not, how do I uninstall them safely?

Sorry about the lenght of the message.

Many Thanks

Luca

 

I'm sorry maybe should have posted these as well before.
XP C and next post is my XP E.
Please have a look at both and maybe help me.

 

Last one, I promise.

 

Hello Luca,

Thank you for choosing Acronis Software.

Please boot up from the Windows Bootable CD, then go to the Recovery Console (the first Repair option you come to).

From the command prompt please type:

FIXMBR
FIXBOOT C:
COPY CDDrive:\I386\NTLDR E:\
COPY CDDrive:\I386|NTDETECT.COM E:\
BOOTCFG /rebuild

After that, please reboot your computer.

If that does not solve the issue with your E: booting then please create Acronis Report once again and submit a request for technical support. Attach the report file to your request along with the link to this thread. We will investigate the problem and try to provide you with the solution.

Regarding those files you have mentioned, they are special Acronis Drivers and are used by Acronis programs only within Windows. In case you do not use Acronis Software in Windows then you can safely delete all the files related to Acronis products by doing the following:

- Delete snapman from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E967-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} -> UpperFilters
