Hi, I followed Windows XP Embedded toturials (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/Embedded/xp/techinfo/howto/stepguide/setup ..asp) and created the run-time image. But when I tried to reboot it, I got the following error: Windows 2000 could not start because of a computer disk hardware configuration problem. Could not read from the selected boot disk, check boot path and disk hardware. ....... I almost did exactly what the tutorial said except: -- Develop and test on a Windows 2000 Pro system instead of XP -- The second partition is G: instead of D: -- The partition is configured as NTFS instead of FAT, so I imported NTFS and NTFS Format components. -- The boot partition size is larger than 700MB (about 18G). Is there any of the above will affect the booting of the image? Or something wrong with the image itself? Or the partition disk? How should I debug it? Thanks, Peter
