I purchased Partition Magic 8.0 and used it to resize partitions on a test pc.
I have WINXP PRO installed and want to install linux on another partition. I thought I would try BootMagic, since I had never used it before and it worked fine.

Now the problem. While sick at home, no excuse,I decided to play around with my partitions sizes before installing Linux. Being "Brain Dead" that day I resized before uninstalling boot magic, which was installed on a partiontion other that C:, that now no longer exists.

I got the boot error message,"can't find Btmagic.img" press any key to continue. I get rid of that error by using FIXMBR. But if I try to reinstall BootMagic I get an installation error that says setup can't find the partition where the original program was installed. And it won't since that partition no longer exists.

Now be kind fellows and ladies, since I am still sick, mental my wife says, and help me figure out how to rid my PC of all traces of BootMagic and be able to reinstall it. Not that I want to use it instead of Grub bootloader, but this problem may come up again and I want to be able to fix it.

Tried the following with no success;
removed all trace of program from registry.
used Regedit to clean anything left behind.
Ran scandisk and System Restore.
Looked at Google and at Symantec support.

I did not uninstall Partition Magic?

So any help would be appreciated.
