Hello,
You can Boot from the XP CD-ROM... don't forget to use F6 to install the
support for Raid.. then use Repair using Recovery Console.. then log to your
installation it will ask for administrator password... then goto
c:\windows\system32\config and rename security to security.old then goto
c:\windows\repair and copy security to c:\windows\system32 and exit. Reboot
the machine.
Note : I assume your installation path is c:\windows if you use another
change the path i use with your own path
If this doesn't work you can always make a slipstream Windows XP SP2... and
do a repair installation
The difference between a regular drive and the one you have installed is the
raid controller that need the floppy disk driver to be recognize by XP.
