Hi,
I formatted the HDD of my older computer with ubuntu 13.04 on. When I tried to boot to the Windows XP disk, it didn't boot, and just shows up with this message.
What can I do?
Thanks
Bakht

Boot the XP installation CD, launch restore console and do fixmbr.

Is it set to boot from the CD drive in your BIOS?

Yes, yes it is.
