What happened and what to do????

I had a HD/ SATA drive die. It had my Leopard OS on it. Lukily I have everything backed up on time machine. Put a new HD, recovered everything with Time Machine and now when I try to boot to Windows XP pro on boot up I get OS not found??
I have Windows XP/ Boot Camp on a seperate HD in my MacPro and that disc is fine as per disc utility.
Is there a setting I am missing?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Dan

Also try booting your Windows install disc and see if it can find the existing XP partition. If the problem is on the XP side you can enter Recovery Console and maybe repair it. See:

Also the documentation and utilities on this site may be of help:

    I recently had to reinstall my software for a
    dell computer a dell latitude d 830, then after installing all of my software and such including itunes the player did well even record to disks with no problems now that my system has done alot of updating of system files....now the itunes does not burn to my cd...error message 2131 this time
    The 2131 usually indicates firmware needs to be updated on a drive.
    Head to your drivers and downloads page for your latitude at Dell, and check for updates to your firmware for your optical drives. If you're behind and you update, does that clear up the 2131?

  • Do Flash Sites appear? if not what happens and what does it look like?

    Has anyone tried any Flash based websites to see what it looks like?
    If anyone has any screen captures or photos of the iPhone viewing Flash sites, I'm interested to see what happens before I buy an iPhone. Thanks

    Hi,
    Right now you cannot download anything to the Iphone, as there is no user access to the file system.
    You can download to your computer and then sync to move pictures, songs, etc to the phone through itunes for now.
    Hope this helps!

  • HT4972 I updated my ipod touch and now I can't open any of my videos what happened and what can I do to get them to open

    I updated my ipod touch and now I can't open any of my downloaded apps, what would happen if I reset it to factory settings?

    Try a hard reset.  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    If still no luck try downloading and installing a free app from the app store.  This has resolved the issue for many users.

  • I use blackboard, since the latest update to 3.6.14, I get errors with caching applets, use IE and works fine. Whats happened and what can I do to resolve it?

    Error Cache:
    Unable to update files in cache.
    Name: myApplet
    java.net.MalformedURLException: no protocol: jar/dragndrop_applet.jar
    I get a bunch of these Cache Errors. Happens with application only, its blackboard hosted by continuinged.uml.edu.
    Run the same thing using IE it has no problems. Firefox till the latest upgrade was also working fine.
    What can I do to resolve this problem?

    There's a bug in 3.6.14 with Java applets. 3.6.15 was released last Friday to fix that bug. Use '''Help > Check for Updates''' to start the update process to 3.6.15.

    Hey juliane1205,
    First, try these steps:
    Open Keychain Access, located in the Utilites folder in the Applications folder.
    Choose Keychain Access > Keychain First Aid.
    Enter your user name and password.
    Select Verify and click Start. Any problems found will be displayed.
    If there are problems, select Repair, and then click Start.
    To change the Keychain First Aid settings, choose Keychain Access > Preferences, and then click First Aid.
    Then I would repair disk permissions:
    Choose Apple menu > Software Update to make sure you have the latest version of Mac OS X.
    Software updates sometimes change a file’s permissions to improve security, so updating your software can solve some permissions problems.
    Open Disk Utility, in the Utilities folder in Launchpad.
    Select the disk you want to check.
    You can verify or repair permissions only on a disk with Mac OS X v10.7 Lion installed.
    Click First Aid.
    Do one of the following:
    Click Verify Disk Permissions to test permissions.
    Click Repair Disk Permissions to test and repair permissions.
    And lastly, restart your computer, and see if that helps. If it doesn't, report back.

    You did not ruin the phone, you will need a sim card to activate the phone and then connect the phone to itunes and do a restore from back up.

  • Whenever I click on a song in my itunes library an exclamation point appears and I am no longer able to play this song or video why does this keep happening and what can I do to fix it?

    Whenever I click on a song or video in my library and I try to play it, and exclamation point immediately pops up and it tells me that my song or video's origional file cannot be located. It has happened to over 100 of my songs and I would like to know what is happening and what I can do to fix it. Let me know. Thanks!

    The usual explanation for this is that:
    1. You have changed the iTunes preferences so that when importing a song the file is not copied into the iTunes media library - doing so is the default.
    2. You have subsequently moved the original file, which iTunes has been using to play your song, and so of course it's lost contact with it.
    If 1. is not the case, then the files in the iTunes Library (by default, in (user)/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music) may have been moved, deleted or become corrupted. You should check in that library, but don't start moving files in there about. If this is the case you should delete the songs in the iTunes Music list, not in the Finder, and re-import.

  • So my i just dropped my iPad and now it won't start up. It just keeps turning on and off. Like the apple symbol shows up and then goes away? What happened and is there a way to fix it. I tried restoring and that didn't work

    I pretty much stated it in my question. I dropped my iPad and now it won't boot itself up. The apple symbol shows up, then the screen turns all black and weird looking with a strange green color at the bottom, and just turns off. It keeps doing this over and over. What happened and is there a way to fix it? I also tried connecting it to itunes and that doesn't seem to be working. It detects an ipad but can't seem to read anything else. It tells me to try and restore it but I can't. HELP!!!

    Try this. It worked for a few users after a drop.
    Turn the iPad over and give it a very HARD slap on the back. May take several slaps.

  • With my taking any action, my folders and files no longer appear under documents (under Places). Now a folder titled Documents has appeared on my desktop with all my files and folders. What happened?What happened?

    The way I moved from 10.3.9 to 10.5.8 was to use "ditto -rsrc" and copy the user homes and the data share to an external firewire drive. Then did the same in reverse.
    I found the key to data and share permissions to make sure that the users had the same UID in Leopard that they had in Panther.
    You can then use "sudo rm -rf" to remove any folder from the relocated homes that you want. Remember if you do choose to remove "~/Library" from each users relocated home, you will be removing any iCal calendars, login.keychains, browser bookmarks, custom screensavers and wallpapers, etc.
    Users don't really care if they can login and do any work. But there will be much wailing, gnashing of the teeth, and anxiety, if they lose their bookmarks and wallpaper.
