FC3 - Can't Find Partion Table On Boot
Date: Tue, 01 Mar 2005 15:02:52 GMT
Help please.
Upon return from being away for 4 days (OS off but motherboard had power) I
now can't boot my FC3 box. The BIOS see the hard disk but it can't find the
boot info on it. I went in to Rescue mode which confirmed this.
Obviously I don't want to lose the data on my disk, and I'm not sure what to
do next.
I'm hoping that advice from this group will help me recover my system.
I'm all ears. Thanks in advance.
