My mum has an Iqon PC which had Windows XP preinstalled and had a PC Angel recovery partition.
As part of my ongoing quest to convert my mum to Ubuntu I installed a dual boot system a while ago.
I need now to reinstall the Windows partitition from the recovery partition as it has been destroyed by a virus but the PC Angel software crashes whenever I load it from the GRUB menu. I have tried fixmbr but this will not allow me to access the recovery software. I would really like to be able to install Windows from this without having to pay for another copy of Windows.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
