wow, really glad i checked here before patching.
i havnt seen this anywhere, so for those who have already patched and dont have a backup boot.ini, heres mine (works for windows xp professional). just copy and past into a notepad file and save it as boot.ini in the c directory.
"[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect /noexecute=optin
"
hope this can help someone, and CCP, if your monitering this RELEASE A FREEKING STATEMENT ALREADY!!!! just fess up and make damn sure to apologise to all those clients of yours whos computers are not not working.
why is there still not a banner on the main page stating in big red flashing bold text to not install the upgrades and to check your system if you already have?

- 2 hours on phone with Dell customer support as I receive step-by-step instructions on how to remove the HD from my laptop = $6
- Generic piece of crap 2.5" External HD Enclosure at Microcenter so I can pull the Powerpoint file of the presentation I have to make in less than 10 hours = $52.49
- Not having to explain to my boss that my presentation was lost due to an online game I play = priceless
Wish my OS Recovery CDs weren't a couple thousand miles away. Oh well. Thanks for the most magical patch experience ever CCP

We have taken down the ability to download the Classic to Premium upgrade patch until we have determined where the issue lies and how we can resolve this. Full install clients have not exhibited this issue and are safe to download.
Until we have resolved this, please visit this Microsoft Knowledge Base Item.
PLZ NOTE THIS IS NOT CORRECT. THE FULL INSTALL IS NOT SAFE! IT DOES DELETE THE BOOT.INI. I just did the full install lucky i kept checking.
What is the precise filename of the file you downloaded that caused you to experience the issue?
Had you used a premium patch on the test server earlier?
These answers will help CCP narrow down the issue.
Thanks,
--P
Thought it would be understood but the Full client Dl that has the preimum with it. Its on the web site. Seen here. Test server patches didnt have this lol.
