After upgrading Ubuntu to 10.04, we found that xp cannot be started today. In GRUB2, select xp and press enter, and always jump back to GRUB.

Later, I found a solution on the Internet to use the fixboot program on the Windows XP Recovery Console to restore the Boot Sector.

1. Start the disk with a Windows XP installation disk

2. When you choose to install Windows or repair, press R to enter the Windows System Recovery Console mode

3. Select the Windows system to be repaired, and enter the Administrator password to log on.

4. Enter fixboot and press enter in Console mode. Follow the prompts to confirm.

5. restart the computer, select xp item in the GRUB2 menu, and press enter to enter the original Windows.

Use the fixmbr command to remove GRUB2.

Fixboot writes a new Partition Boot Sector to the system partition. The fixboot command can be used only when the fault recovery console is used. Fixboot [drive] parameter drive the drive to be written to the boot sector. It replaces the default drive (that is, the system partition that the user logs on ). For example, drive: D: example the following command example writes a new Partition Boot Sector to the system partition of drive D: fixboot d: Note: www.linuxidc.com if no parameter is included, the fixboot command writes a new Partition Boot Sector to the system partition that the user logs on. Fixmbr fixes the Master Boot Record of the boot disk. The fixmbr command is available only when the fault recovery console is used. The fixmbr [device_name] parameter device_name is the device (drive) to which the new Master Boot Record is written ). The device name can be obtained from the output of the map command. For example, Device name: \ Device \ HardDisk0 example the following command example writes a new Master Boot Record to a specified Device: fixmbr \ Device \ HardDisk0 Note: If device_name is not specified, the new Master Boot Record will be written into the boot device, that is, the drive that loads the master system. · If the system detects invalid or non-standard Partition Table tags, it will prompt the user to continue executing the command. Do not continue unless you have problems accessing the drive. Writing a new primary Boot Record to the system partition may damage the partition table and cause the partition to be inaccessible.
