Re: broken leg and a broken heart

I replied to this but I think it went to get more instead of the group. I
need A manual way to fix this or with some freeware software. the erd
commander from what i found online is $150. I tried to do an upgrade but
from windows it says the version i have is newer and when I try it from boot
cd it tells me its going to make another multiboot. this is how my boot.ini
looks now

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS.0="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect

Ok guys. This morning I ran a program to restore some drivers I had
installed prior to rebuilding my pc. I add. I have mcafee, noadware,
lavasoft, and spybot all running. all of a sudden I notice my pc kept
rebooting. it only goes to where you would see the windows xp screen and
reboots. I tried

Safemode: it starts to run then reboot.
tried last good config: reboots

so I can't even get into safe mode to undo the drivers to see if that
cause the issue "all the drivers I was installing where drivers I had
installed previously"

I installed xp i had which was a unattended cd and it made a dual boot on
the same partition.

How can i restore the right win XP?
if I ran my other xp cd and do "Upgrade" should that work?
I did some reading and someone said to "copy cd drive K:I386\ntldr c:\
"i'm thinking I need to add windows.0 there also then
copy K:\I386\ntdect.com C:/ think I need to add windows.0 there also.
should this work?

Or should I just try this

Attrib -h -r -s c:boot.in del C:\boot.ini
then type :bootcfg/rebuild.
