Partition Table Fixing

My comp will not boot to windows when i used Powerquest Partition magic to resize the Windows partition by 10GB and decreasing the data partition by 10GB.


I tried windows recovery on C:

Rebooted and did not work.

I did FIXMBR C:\
And instead it got rid of the partition making it seem like unallocated space.

I run test disk of knoppix and both drives have the error. "Warning: Incorrect number of heads/cylinder 16 (NTFS) !=255 (HD)".

i do not know how to make partition when i ran test disk?

What do you recoomend?

Did you try PartedMagic, & it comes free.

You can also try using SuperGrub Disk which is also free & says that it recovers windows bootloader something { i am new to it }. should have a go for these
