so this morning. im resizing my HD's partitions to make them more usefull for how i prefer to have things. I open Acronis disc director and make the changes. I hit commit and it forces me to reboot. it completes its changes in windows unknown mode. The it goes to reboot and i have issues. It seems a very important kernel(ntoskrn1.exe). straight out of bios it says corrupt bootmgr restart or with a vlite disc it shows the corrupt kernel and wont boot in safe mode.
Now im caught, i have 2 working windows install discs, one trys to load part of windows by itself and the other streamlined with a update license telling me to load windows. My windows is real, i didnt steal it, but i used my upgrade code and my friends 64bit disc. In addition, i have a FULL disc back up using acronis's backup/recovery software(but thats on a sapre notebook drive that i dont have a case for, old case just dont work).
Im trying to get my computer back up and running before my new hardware come, at which time i can use a different computer and clone drives to recover(properly). So finally to my needed help. Does anyone know what i can do to fix this, and get windows to load?
thanks for the help and reading all that

well.. i get that u cant boot windows xp right?
so.. u need a xp pro cd (i think in the other versions, the recovery console is not included, dunno anyway)
boot the cd.
enter recovery console (instead of installing xo, press the number that goes to recovery console)
enter fixmbr
fixboot
that should do it.
else... i didnt understand what u just said ^^
oops! please help
