I had a dual boot system with WinXP and Linux using Lilo. I wanted to get rid of Linux and unpartition my hard disk to get rid of Linux. I didn't know the problems I created at the time until it was too late. I tried to delete them all and reinstall WinXP Bootloader. Now, after I've tried any and everything and since I'm stuck at this point, I am left with a Compaq Laptop that does not start up correctly. I have, the main bootable partition, soo small, it cannot hold anything, but since I cannot resize it, I'm stuck with it unable to access any others. I tried to reinstall WinXP at this point without realizing what I'd done and now the computer, when it restarts every single time (even with bootable cd's in the CD-ROM drive which is supposed to boot before HDD). I have no idea what to do next. I basically need to format the MBR, HDD, and delete the other partitions giving the main partition full size. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!! I soo messed this one up...
Thanks,
