[Paul Saenz]

Thanks Jason. the guy decided to reinstall everything. What I've seen so far about the MBR was fun anyways. It re-kindled my quest to learn the black art of Master Boot Record rescue. I learned a lot, and I'm gonna continue and make my own ucbd4win, so I can use it to rescue windows systems. The website I listed in the beginning of this thread is really good.
