Hey,

Thanks for your replies, i really appreciate it. I wouldn't have had any cd's to try that partition thing though (i'm on a trip in Lapland).

To get the thing working i originally installed xp for, i had to remove all partitions and install a fresh xp (i did leave 80gb for a possible W7 installation though) and now everything in xp is therefore working normally (had a performance problem with F-Secure when logging in, with the wrong system drive letter problem on).

I'm sure that there are other people with this problem though and there's definitely gonna be new instances also so if anyone has this problem they should post here so that the problem can be solved.

And i'll surely post here again if i bump in to it again :).

Thanks for your help,
Dennis
