    Unable to Load XP
    Hello Friends.

    I reinstalled my Xp as it is effected by a virus. I formatted the entire hard disk and repartitioned the drive. Everything went fine. Then I installed "ALTIRIS VIRTUALISATION" software. Hope u r familiar with this. If not, Its a virtualisation software to capture the changes made by Third party softwares while installing to XP and thus keeps the system safe by protecting the registry.

    Then i installed "NORTON GOBACK" with Altiris ON. Then it asked for a restart and i did. From then onwards the OS is not loading. When started normally, it gives a error message "AUTOCHK MISSING - AUTOCHECK SKIPPED". I tried to boot in safe mode but it restarts immediately while loading "c:/WINDOWS/SYSTEM32/DRIVERS/MUP.SYS".

    Even the rescue cd's are futile.The NORTON GOBACK failed to restore the system. Now I can reinstall the OS but the problem is that The hard disk is shown as entire one drive without any partitions. Actually I made 6 partitions.

    Please suggest a solution.

    If I understand correctly you are able to now load the operating system, but, the partitions you created are no longer there. Is partitioning the HDD after you load XP an option? You can partition in XP Disk Management.
