please help urgently some1. I installed SP2 on my machine and now its not booting at all. I have a dual boot with WIN 98 as 2nd OS. this is working fine, but whenever i try to start XP, nothing happens at all. I tried using the XP CD Recovery Console, but of no use. It could not find any XP Installations on my machine. I did BOOTCFG /SCAN and it said "Corrupt file system". i did CHKDSK but no problem was found. please help how to fix this "Corrupt file system"

Check Microsofts' homepage. They explain how to remove the installation of SP2.
