I was wondering how would I go about installing WinXP again (For Games and 3Ds Max 8 ) without removing my Current OS or Data? I mean i realize i would have to use a live CD to extract some space from my Kubuntu's Partition to create XP's. But how would i get grub working again once XP is installed??

I have no flobby drive and have too much data to backup.

use super grub to reinstall grub over NTLDR which will get installed by windows since it doesnt know any better.

Also a title of "question" isnt very helpful. 9 out of 10 forum posts are questions.

take a look here: http://supergrub.forjamari.linex.org/?section=documentation. Do just as they did. You should be all set.

Don't worry about the post title. Just future reference. You will get a better response that way.

Great now i got Grub back up...but grub doesn't see Windows XP's Partition so i can't boot... And the New Super Grub doesn't work like it does in Doc.
