After trying to repair the spare W.Digidal HD it will now NOT Boot on its own, but boots with a boot floppy program called "fixntldr.exe" found here:-  http://tinyempire.com/notes/ntldrismissing.htm

Somehow I blue it & ended up with 2 Wins XP, as shown below E primary & J logical.

Can anybody see a way of geting this HD to boot on its own.

I can even make it to go in Safe Mode.

I know this isn't the kind of reply your looking for, but at this point, it might be easier to format and reinstall, than to try to fix it.

Hoorrayyyy, done it. Thanx to all for trying.

Managed to get in command mode using BARTE CD & applied these two:-

copy K:\i386\ntldr C:\                     (where K is the CDD letter)
copy K:\i386\ntdetect.com C:\
