I upgraded my system and moved my HD to the new system and XP would not
boot. I had to do a repair/reinstall to get the system to boot. Now I have
two problems
1: I have 2 installs of Windows XP and 3 listings in the boot.ini. However
the original in C:\windows is the one that is working.
2: Every now and then I get a warning that some file are not the expected
and I need to restore the original ones from the cd.

I'm pulling my hair out. Pls Help!!!
 
Install xp cd,restart,boot to cd,recovery,press enter for password,type:DiskPart
At the screen delete the unwanted partitions of xp,then type:EXIT
Back on desktop,go to run,type:cmd Then type:Sfc /Scannow
When the graph starts,install xp cd,exit the info page.When its thru,type:CHKDSK C: /R
Agree to restart,type:EXIT restart computer (remove xp cd when graph is thru).
