OS: win 2000 pro / Win XP pro

My System

Re: Rebooting Problem.

restarting the system manually before partition magic finished its work is what screwed up your drive / i know it was stuck and you were forced to do so

now / most likely you will need to wipe out your hard drive and start over ......... you can download and run killdisk (free) that will wipe / erase the drive completely to give you a fresh start

then do a fresh install of win xp / this time boot into partition magic before you install windows xp ......... make your partition sizes / make sure you use fat32 on the partition you want to hold the win 98 OS and use NTFS on the partition for win xp

does this make sense to you ?
