Mint 9 and Win Xp dual boot, Win Xp will not boot

[paulG]

Hi, I"m new to linux. My netbook that had Xp installed and I installed Mint9 side by side by resizing my partition. From the boot menu I can boot Mint 9 and it is working great, However, Windows XP does not work anymore.
When I try to start Windows Xp from the boot menu it just goes to the xp loading screen than freezes and restarts my computer. Does anyone know what happened, or how I can fix this?

Thanks,
Paul

In the grub2 has a bug which causes those problems trying to boot winnies ..

Not a final solution, but maybe the next CD will boot XP properly ..

XPbootCDx4 = Windows XP pro starts up partitions 1- 4
