Hi,
I have a friend who was using Partition Magic to create another partition in his HD so that he could have a duel boot system with XP/Linux. He ran the partition magic and at the end he had a message saying he will need to reboot the machine then install the other operating system. When he tried to reboot he just kept getting drive read errors. He rebooted the system again with the XP cd and besides the C drive it said inactive and he was not able to change it. He ran Fix MBR and then he rebooted he said he had some error about Missing NTLDR.
Well at the end he finally just formated the HD and re-installed windows. So what im asking is, was there anything he could have done to re-activate his C drive?
Thanks
