Hello everyone!

I am using PartitionMagic 8.0 to convert the current format (NTFS) of partition into FAT32. But whenever I apply the changes and restart my computer, it says something like that:

Error 100. Partition table is bad.

Does anyone know what is the problem?

Thanks in advacne!

And you could find my computer specification in my profile...

The company which made PartitionMagic 8.0 has been purchased by Symantec recently. They recommend that you run CHKDSK to clear up partition problems. Instructions on how to do this are available at:

You might try this.

By the way, I'd be interested to know why you would want to go back to FAT32 from NTFS which is the default for Windows XP.
