Parition Magic / PqRP partition

[CaesarCZ]

Hi,
I've been dumb, I admit it, but anyway, the problem is I now have a PqRP partition, which is a result of my Partition Magic 8's failure. Now I need to restore the partition, but PM doesn't seem to work. Any recommendations? How, any tools, whatever?

** Warning: older versions of ptedit.exe cannot edit the boot record of hidden NTFS partitions. There are several versions of ptedit.exe that identify themselves as "Version 1.0", so check the file date. Versions prior to the 10/22/1999 version (filesize 494,922 bytes) reportedly have this bug. If you are using an older version (and note PowerQuest has not updated their ftp site as of this writing), the solution to editing hidden NTFS boot records is simple: use ptedit.exe to change the partition type from "17" (hidden NTFS) to "07" (regular NTFS), then edit the boot record, then change the partition type back to "17".
