PBR
in [Dell]

From: haku on 24 Oct 2007 22:48 have a Dell Inspiron 700m and after I installed WinXP SP2 I noticed the flash message "Loading PBR for descriptor 4...done" to the screen right before the WinXP boot login logo. Does PBR have something to do with the primary boot record?

The original drive was partitioned something like this 1) Dell utility partition 2) Boot partition/Windows *Media Direct partition, if applicable 3) Hidden image restore partition Go into control panel/administrative tools/computer management/disk management and you can view the partititions GUI and get a better idea of how the drive is set up.
