Hello,
I had win 7 and thought to install Win XP on the second partition. Everything is good, only the internet in XP wines did not work and 7 already did not want to turn on. I formatted the XP wine partition because I thought I wouldn't need it. When I wanted to reinstall win XP, I only got one partition 153/153 GB free, I installed it and after the reset the error A disk read error occurred. I connected cables to other inputs and an Invalid Partition Table popped up. I put it in place and then the same. I started with full instalke win 7 because the drive does not work and I gave the system a repair, which did not work. In addition, the installation does not detect the disk at all, it says that it is unknown. Fixmbr command does not work and fixboot cannot find a file. I tried chkdsk with commands to no avail. You can see the disk normally in the bios.
Specs:
AMD Athlon x64 dual 2.01ghz 3800+
Gigabyte board I don't know the model
1GB RAM
WDC WD1600YS-01SHB1
I will add that chkdsk says that the NTFS boot sector is damaged. I can't check the disk with someone, play testdisk and this type of dupes for pen, change SATA cables. I would like to fix it myself, but if it is impossible, I will contact a specialist
