HELP, Restored Win2k w/Drive Image, can't log in

I just restored my Dual boot setup using Drive Image. Everything went fine, no errors or anything, but I can't log into Win2k Pro.
It accepts my password and I hear the little windows jingle then it says "saving your data" like I'm logging on as a different user. I did also try to log on as other users but I get the same results.

I'm in Win98 of the same system now, and all the Win2K files look to be OK.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks,

well try logging in under safemode and seeing if that does it. Other than that the only thing to do is run a repair install.

OK, I get the same thing with safe mode. Tried the repair install, nothing was found wrong, if it let's you know, and I still get the same problem.
Any other ideas?

Thanks,

Got it fixed laugh
Found this article at the MS support site.
Just ran FDISK /MBR and system is up and running with no problems.
