1)i recently lost my winxp installation while using webroot window washer-and ashampoo.
2)i used a bootable disk (quick heal antivirus) and used fdisk utility inbuilt with it.its interface was different than that of standard win-fdisk
3)i have reinstalled my winxp
4)after that when i logged in to linux i could see the type of my c: and e: partitions have also changed to "win95 FAT32 lba" from plain "FAT32".same was visible on the fdisk utility.
I never used win95 nor formatted the hdd.How come my partition type changed automatically?i had used the same bootable disk and fdisk utility to check my friends hdd which eventually got obselete.
does this labelling means some virus/errors in my hdd?is it normal?

PS:after reinstallation i also needed to adjust fstab and lilo since my root partition got changed to /hda9 from /hda8.(my cdrom was first named as g: but now named as h
hdd type changed from "FAT32" to "win95 FAT32 lba"
