Problem with the hard drive movie/clone
Refer to: I did it the clone, E:\ to C:\ - boot. ini and of course the boot sector was lost. It also re-sized my hard drive to 10gig (as E:\ was) but in partition magic it showed it as 30gig. . .

It also re-sized my hard drive to 10gig (as E:\ was) but in partition magic it showed it as 30gig....
Anyway, when rebooting, i got something like "ntldir cannot be detected" or something, i cant remember offhand (having to write this from college)....
Any ideas on what to do?
I did go into the repair cons and do a fixmbr but that didnt help....
I'm going to reinstall XP onto C:\ and then have a go at it again, but i need another working way
Hopefully someone can help!
Thanks a lot!
