thanks for the replay to my earlier thread.
As per advised I changed my boot.ini as follows :-

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\winnt
[Operating system]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\winnt="windows server 2000"/fastdetect
(it is my primary os and it working when i select it.)
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\winnt="windows XP"/fastdetect
(this is the second os in second disk. when is select this there is an error showing that windows 2000 cann't start because the file
windows2000 root>system32>ntoskrnl.exe is corrupt and reinstall a copy of this file) I put a new copy of this file also, the same error occured" pl. help me

thank and Happy New Year

the only mistake I see in your boot.ini file is in the following line
"multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\winnt="windows XP"/fastdetect"

Substitue the word WINDOWS for winnt see if that will fix you up.
