When you power up your computer, the system examines the master
partition table to determine what volume to use to boot up the operating
system, and detected invalid information within it. This is caused by
an incorrect or missing active partition.
To resolve this issue,
consider the following steps:
- Boot up the computer with a
Microsoft Windows 98 boot up disk or Windows XP recovery console. Select
the correct bootup device before you do that.
- At the DOS
command prompt, type in: fdisk
- Question - Do you wish to enlarge
large disk support (Y/N) ?
- Enter: Y
- Now to check for
active partition, enter: 2
- Look under the Status column. The
active partition is usually assigned to the drive which contains your
operating system.
- If there's no active partition set, enter the
number of the partition to make active
This must solve your
problem.
