Big Problem, I use Partition Magic to resize my partition and to create another from that free space. But PM gave an error while doing the job... Now it won'i boot anymore, When I checked the partition for errors with Powerquest(From Partition magic) the errors are 1516: partition improperly dismounted, 1517:file attribute is missing,1609. Someone knows how to fix this?
