I've done a big error with linux: I've operated without take care or asking to anyone.
I've cancelled College linux first, and Windows xp after, with fdisk (for DOS)...
OK, now this idiot will explain the beautiful result: I reinstalled Windows, but when I reboot, the system doesn't start, and on the screen compared 0101010101010101010101010... and so on.
I tried reinstalling linux, but compared, after the reinstallation during the first reboot, a message of kernel panic, and the computer didn't go on...
May you tell me what can I do to make my hard disk ready for new installation of both the systems?
A friend says to me use Partition Magic, is expensive but good, and will recognise all the shit on your disk.
Good idea for you?
