Hello Unluckly after have turned on pc..... it show the messagge "error loading operating system" ??? what it's the cause of this msg of error? It's the mbr? Hmmm .. From he http://www.ata-atapi.com/hiwmbr.htm We can see that this particular message is displayed when there's an error while reading the first sector of the partition itself. So, the MBR is already read and the boot code seems intact (as it is executing). An active partition was found, and it's now trying to read the first sector of that partition (the boot sector). When doing so 'a' read error occurs. if so, as some have had advised to me i have tryed booting win2k cd and from console "fix mbr"...but the things aren't changed..... No, assuming the above is correct that wouldn't change much. If the problem it's only the mbr,luckly i have one copy of it, maded before this bad situation...BUT... i don't know how to restore mbr from this copy...how i can do?with wich software??? With what did you *make* the copy? I am sure that if you have software that can make a backup of the MBR, it can restore it as well ... Test the disk surface for read errors. The demo for DiskPatch can perform a surface scan, where it will simply test if sectors on the disk can be read. Also, probably the manufacturer of you hard disk offers a diagnostic tool on his website, download that tool and have it test the disk. -- Joep D I Y D a t a R e c o v e r y .

I have just choose "yes" when installing BeOs (altough you couldn't know...as you can imagine from the name, is an operating system) when it asked "mad a copy of mbr?"... so i don't know how to restore...it's cd hadn't utilities for restore, so i need a sw of other...

Yep, but cause i cannot boot my pc, i'm now from a "live cd" of linux, there isn't tool that work from linux for do what you had said to me(scandisk, and a sw for mbr..) ??
