Installing BootMagic in a System with Windows NT

BootMagic™ is a utility included in the PowerQuest PartitionMagic™ software.
See “Installing PartitionMagic” earlier in this document for general installation
information.

If you have a Windows NT operating system, use the information in the
following section to correctly configure BootMagic.

If you already installed BootMagic and the configuration resulted in an error
message, see “Correcting the BootMagic Configuration” later in this document.

Configuring BootMagic

If you have a system with the Windows NT operating system, use the following
procedure to correctly configure BootMagic.

1. 

Follow the instructions in the PartitionMagic Userinfo folder to install
BootMagic. When the “BootMagic Configuration” box appears at the end of
the installation, continue to the next step.

2. 

Configure BootMagic.

„

 

If you want to use BootMagic:
Click the 

ENABLE BOOTMAGIC

 button. The BootMagic menu appears

during the next bootup sequence and lets you select Windows NT as the
operating system.

„

 

If you do not want to use BootMagic:
Do not select the 

ENABLE BOOTMAGIC

 button. The BootMagic menu

does not appear at bootup.

3. 

Select 

SAVE/EXIT

 in the BootMagic Configuration box to complete the

configuration process. Either choice, to enable BootMagic or to not enable
BootMagic, requires the SAVE/EXIT selection.

!

CAUTION

To correctly complete the BootMagic configuration, you must
select SAVE/EXIT from the BootMagic Configuration box,
even if you do not want to use BootMagic. Omitting this step
results in an error message.
