    I have got some problem.

    My computer have been shut off since summer. It´s system drive is encypted with Truecrypt.
    And today I started it.

    The computer starts and show TrueCrypt Boot Loader 7.1a and asks for my password.
    After a lot of trying I realise one of my tested password must have been correct. Something must have happened with the encryption.

    After four attempts I get:
    If you are sure the password is correct, the key data may be damaged. Boot your TrueCrypt Rescue Disk and select ´Repair Options´> ´Restore key data´.

    Unfortunatly I can´t find my rescue disk, can´t even remember if I created one either.
    How do I proceed?
    Is it possible to create a new rescue disk with another computer?
    Pull out the hard drive and put it in another computer?
    Or is there another option?
