i wanted to use linux so i tried SUSE 10.2 installed it but after installation i get an error : Error loading operating system...
i.e. i cannot boot into either windows XP or linux....
i think i changed the MBR..... do u know what can i do to get my windows start back.....
i can boot into LINUX from the bootable DVD.....but that should not be the case...
i installed GRUB first into MBR (coz. i was unknown of it)....then i did "fixmbr" for windows xp and then i installed again GRUB but this time not into MBR....
when i restart the PC i get message:
GRUB loading...
ERROR 17
