Stupid Windoze box! Long story short, by reinstalling some CD ROM software from a disk supplied with my computer, I have screwed up the drivers in Windows such that it won't recognize my CDROM, 3.5 floppy, or ZIP disk drives. The problem is that, in trying to reinstall the system, I couldn't get past the multiple partitions thing. So, I deleted my Linux partition. Wouldn't be a problem except that I deleted the partition before I deactivated BootMagic. So, now I have a boot manager requesting me to rerun BM setup. Unfortunately, BM setup won't work until it has the old Linux partition to work from again, and the limited version of BM can't handle anything other than a fresh CD-ROM install. Can anyone show me how to get past the startup screen that says, "BootMagic image file cannot be found. Please rerun BootMagic setup?"? If this were something simple like an autoexec.bat or config.sys line that needs to be "commented out", I probably could have handled it. Or, do I need to reformat my HD? BCH
