GRUBby Help

[djzalzer]

Onoz! Ah. Well, I installed a version of Debian along with my Windows XP installation (The distro was called "Shift") and when I turn on the computer, it goes to GRUB like it should. When I select Windows XP, though, it goes to that one menu where you're supposed to (I guess) choose Safe Mode or Last Known Good configuration. Like this one:

Except that it says that Windows encountered an error and blah blah blah. Anyways, when I select anything, like normal mode or safe mode or whatever, it just freezes up. (*Blam*). I tried fooling around with the GRUB commands but it either made no difference or did nothing.

Any help? (Or a more appropriate site to post this at? Couldn't find any)

yeah, im now completly linux (ubuntu), did you install linux on the same drive as windows? sometimes it can screw things in the mbr and stuff, also the ext3 partitions are very different from ntfs, and dont like being on the same drive. Happened to me, got rid of windows, I run rpg maker xp in VMWare, since wine doesnt run it!
