    2.) An image of a DOS boot sector.

    Thanks a LOT, SPH

    I don't have any of those, try and do fdisk, and if you have data on that disk, try using Partition Magic or something like that

    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
