I'd like to use the Windows XP recovery console to fix my MBR and I've been reading the instructions at the bottom of http://www.wown.com/articles_tutorials/wxprcons.html to get the to the Windows Recovery Console, but I can never get to the screen allowing you to use it from the 6 floppies it tells you to create, they just keep telling me to insert the next disk. I can't use the recovery Cd's that came with my HP Pavilion, because they only give me the option to do a delete all the data on my hard disk, then do a clean install of Windows XP, and quit, and I don't want to lose all my hard drive data. Do I have to go through every floppy to get to the recovery console, or is there something that site isn't explaining? Won't that remove all the original system files on my hard disk? Does anyone know how to use the setup floppies available from Microsofts web site for this purpose?
