re: Can't get Windows XP to start Monday, July 13, 2009 at 6:06 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Robert Neville (1 messages posted) 6 years after your post, your answer relieved my grief and solved my problem. I had the same problem on Windows 2003 server x64. I booted from a system rescue cd (gentoo based), ran gparted and saw indeed that the partition was hidden. I unflagged the partition with gparted, applied the change and rebooted. This time Windows booted just fine, no blue stop screen with that arcane error. Many, many thanks for your post.
