Ok last time I used my computer was OK then... My windows XP won't boot. I tried using bootdisk and copy boot.ini/ntldr/ntdetect then I found out that drive C: isn't read. I have maxtor 90GB and make 2 partition C and D, now when I try using bootdisk drive D read as C. That's why I can boot to windows. Please.... I need help
Have you checked to see if things have changed in the bios? Your cmos battery could have gone dead and reset everything so it won't read the harddrive correctly.
If you make partitions on a hard drive where Windows is installed, you will run into problems (unless you know what you're doing). By creating partitions you have most likely ruined your XP installation. The only way to safely create partitions is from unallocated area(s) of your hard disk. Moreover, this should be done using Windows Disk Management or with a program such as GParted (unless you want to start over with your operating system; in that case it's safe to use any partitoner). Some disk partitioning programs I've used in the past have you erase the existing partition(s) before it will allow you to make a new one. This will ruin any installation of the operating system.
I'm not trying to be rude, but your post is somewhat vague, you may want to explain it a little different.
