RESCUE.TXT Running PartitionMagic from Rescue Disks The rescue disks and PartitionMagic CD contain the necessary files to boot your computer and run the DOS GUI version of PartitionMagic. You can boot from the first rescue disk or the PartitionMagic CD. The rescue disks or bootable CD will be useful in the following situations: -If you have hidden the hard disk partition where PartitionMagic is installed and need to get back into PartitionMagic to unhide the partition. -If you have accidentally converted a partition to FAT32 when your operating system does not support FAT32 and now your computer will not boot. (Use the rescue disks to convert the partition back to FAT.) -If other occasions arise when you do not have access to the Windows version of PartitionMagic on the CD or hard disk. To use the rescue disks: ------------------------ 1. Boot your computer from the first rescue disk or PartitionMagic CD. 2. If running from disks, insert the second rescue disk when prompted. PartitionMagic runs automatically. Although the rescue disks run a DOS version of PartitionMagic, it is a full GUI application and has similar functionality to the Windows executable. To access online help, insert the second rescue disk, then choose General or Index from the Help menu. For additional information about running PartitionMagic from the rescue disks, including how the rescue disk version of varies from the Windows version, refer to Chapter 1 of the PartitionMagic user guide (provided in PDF format). ======================================================================== PowerQuest can be reached at: Voice: 801-437-8900 Web site: www.powerquest.com E-mail: magic@powerquest.com Copyright 1994-2002 PowerQuest Corporation.
