Something's wrong with multi-boot! - China DOS Union Forum

My machine has three systems installed: 98, 2000, and XP. Once, after I installed a pirated Moto Racer game in XP, the game would not start, so I tried to enter 2000 and reinstall it there, but found that 2000 would not boot either. I went back into XP and used Norton to scan for viruses, but it found nothing, so I had no choice but to use the emergency repair function on the 2000 CD to repair the 2000 system. But after entering 2000, it reported a whole bunch of file link errors. Later I also found that the name of 98 in the system boot options had been changed; booting 98 causes an automatic shutdown, and booting XP just gives a black screen. How should this whole series of problems be solved?

Note: I don't want to format the hard drive, because there is important data in it.
