Black-screen and deactivate OS?

After (interupted?) merger of 2 part. wiht P. Magic didnt XP boot. I found
in W2000 my XP.-part wasnt active so it got activated, then no OS started in
that PC. Can it be deactivated without an OS?

That PC starts with Compaq, then get black with a small twinkle up to the
left. Install repair is run on W2k and doesnt work in Xp. Chkdsk /r, Bootcfg
rebuild, fixboot and fixmbr is run. A new Os is installed on another part.
Nothing helped so far but all content seem to be in place. Old threads and
seek gives me no new ideas so far.

Can anything get lost running new OS's over the old ones, or any other
suggestions to repair what I got?

PS safe mode doesnt work, it seldom does.
