I was wondering onething about this loader I have used the DAZ Loader before and had it mess up when it created the hidden Partition and the olny way I could fix the problem was to run Killdisk on my Harddrive,I was wondering if the extreme edtition loader create's a hidden Partion as well.
AFAIK DAZ Loader doesnt create the hidden partition. Windows installer does create it when you format/partition drives from Win installer.
I could be wrong about the Hidden Partion but I do know the DAZ Loader can do something to mess up the MasterBoot Record,when it happened the first time I asked DAZ what to do and he said I needed to use a Repair disc he made and I had to run Killdisc on my Harddrive. What about the extreme loader is it any good.
Looking back at your posts it was timesurfer that suggested you killdisk your drive. Install the loader with it's default boot menu option selected as it will make recovery and testing much easier. If the first menu option works then you can reinstall the loader with the boot menu disabled
I remeber I asked you as well Daz it just happened you answered my PM before Timesurfer answered my post.
