Sorry for the Windows question, but I am trying to install Linux so it 
is not completely off topic.  What is the "new and improved" way to fix 
an mbr under XP?  Fdisk does not seem to exist so I can't use the tried 
and true fdisk /mbr.  I have an install of the boot loader used in Slack 
12.1 that just will NOT get out of the way so I can redo my Linux 
partition and play with some other things.  I have tried the fixmbr 
command from the recovery console and that does not work either.  Any 
useful help is appreciated.  Thanks, Dennis in Victoria
