    Hi
    Reboot with a linux livecd and see the partition type of the partition that linux see.
    You can use fdisk.
    After you can delete all the partition of the disk and write your change.

    MBR Repair

    IF the only issue was a corrupt MBR, this was very easily fixed via Recovery Console fixmbr command.

    I am curious - no need to respond - but what were you trying to do in the first place with PM?

    Finally, please accept this gratuitous suggestion: do not use PM, especially with XP.
