Endless Paradigm

as some of you may know my partition was fudgeed so i had to try and fix it to dual boot mac os x but but instead it all fudgeed up and ended in my reinstalling vista.

now that its all reinstalled i was wandering how do i check if my partition tablre is still fudgeed or if the reinstall is aite cause then i can make my mac os x partition

---------------------------FIXED-----------------------------------------

NEW PROBLEM

i want to make a partiton for my mac osx now but i jus found out acronis doesn't play nice with sp1 i don't want to unistall sp1 because my media center remote is gay and only works properly with sp1. so is there a solution? maybe another program?

It your partition table is stuffed, you won't be able to boot into ANYTHING.

oh ok but before U.G said it would be fudgeed cause it said index corrupted

so how do i know

If you're paranoid, do a low level format.

If you don't know how, assume it's not stuffed.

ok i tried it and it still failed it said there is a error on sector something i think it was 159 something (it was alot of numbers) i tried resizing my c drive so i had only 7 mb of unalocated space (just for a test)

anyone? i realy would like this please

I think u should format

yeah I would just backup my files and format. .  but before format remove all partitions then after you can put them back I guess

You can try Testdisk. It's included with the excellent Parted Magic.

Just don't make any changes to Vista, since that implementation of NTFS is not well supported yet. You can resize, copy, move or anything else to XP partitions, but leave the Vista ones alone if you still need them, for now. ;)
