How to rewrite MBR [Master Boot Record].

My problem happen from :

1. Install Windows XP.

2. Ghost full haddisk which name of this image is XP-Only.img .
3. Resize&Create parttion on harddisk for prepare installation Ubuntu OS.
4. Install Ubuntu on new partition.

5. Ghost full harddisk to image backup which name of this image is XP-Ubuntu.img . It can full backup.
6. Test to restore image backup to harddisk by image XP-Ubuntu.img which it can not restore , it’s crash. So that you can not start it again.
7. Restore image XP-Only.img again which this image has Windows XP only that you can restore.

8. After you restore completed , you can not start. You found blank screen.

How to fix :

1. Download program Master Boot Record Auto write from this site : http://us1.download.acronis.com/support/mbrautowrite_en.iso

2. Burn disk image to CD.
