FIPS worked well for me when I was repartitioning my meager 700MB drive on
my laptop to accept "Peanut" Linux. As I recall, it was pretty straight
forward. The key to not loosing DO$ information is to scandisk and defrag
(to move everything to the start of the partition), then IMMEDIATELY
Try reburning you copy again... I've had that problem once before. the next
time i installed it worked fine. also, first you might want to grab a disk
manager. use it to delete that partition. i.e. maxblast, ontrac, or western
digital, fujitsu. if that dont cure it, then reburn.

Hi xavier-
I used partition magic and its fine, granted you will probably have to
reboot in safemode to uninstall partition magic as it locks itself into a
loop. Also youll need to edit the autoexec.bat and config.sys as my machine
got stuck in the dos loop. But after that and running scandisk

Huh? I've never had Partition Magic lock up on me. These days,
