Mav3rek Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 Ok, so I installed Vista. I liked it a lot, but there are still just too many bugs in the programming. So i wanted to go back to my original XP. I tried to figure out how to uninstall Vista, but that wasn't working. I loaded into the Windows recovery console and used "fixboot" and that was supposed to write a new bootsector to the c:. but now the computer only boots into the recovery console. nothing else. any ideas on how to fix this>?

I selected "a previous version of Windows" from the boot selection screen It then loaded into the microsoft recovery console I selected drive #3 to sign on to it was c:windows After I loaded into that drive I did the following command "fixboot" and hit enter The computer says a new boot sector was written to drive "c" I then typed exit to restart the computer Now all the computer does is boot strait to the Recovery Console each and every time.
