Hope you can help me out. I had a little problem and think I may have made it worse but not sure. First I am running on a Compaq Presario SR1300NX. Everything was running fine ( I have little kids running around so you never know) until I walked in and the computer was on a black screen that said that windows was unable to load due to a problem in (I think) the config.sys files. I tried doing a recovery with the original windows disk, and it seemed like it would only let me reinstall widows from scratch. I must have clicked on the wrong drive because since then I realized that I have windows running off a recovery partition drive. Which was shortly thereafter because I soon ran out of room. I opened up my comp files and it looks like all the original files and programs are on the main drive. However, when I reboot it now boots right to the partition drive. How do I get my computer running of the correct drive? Any help you can give me I would appreciate. I really would like to save the contents of the original drive if possible.
Here is the Hijackthis file if it will help. I tried getting a copy of the config file on the C drive but it was empty, and the new partition drive wont let me in to see the files. What now??
