Powerquest Partitionmagic 8.0

[j2k4]

I Dled a copy of PartitionMagic 8.0, and, after partitioning my HD (all went according to procedure), I find no evidence the partitions exist.

Diskkeeper tells me "defrag has been cancelled due to inconsistencies that were detected in the filesystem. Please run CHKDSK on (C:) to repair these inconsistencies, then run diskkeeper again."

WinDoctor reveals:

INVALID ICON:C:\PROGRA~1\Partition Magic
8.0\BTMagic\RescueMe\DOSystem\Label.PIF
The Icon C:\Windows\System\Shell32.dll cannot be used. The icon file may ahve been deleted or the .dll might be corrupt.

A CleanSweep Uninstall Wizard search shows many files still extant and denies me access to delete them.

How can I verify the partitions are not there, and how can I get rid of this stuff so I can try another DL that works?

J2,

I get that same error about the icon. No big deal, my PM works fine.

Have you run CHKDSK? Then Diskeeper?

Glad you're here, buddy. :)

It wants me to run CHKDSK/F to fix any problems; should I be at all paranoid about this?

I still can't verify my partitions-should I DL another copy?
