About PQBoot for Windows

  • You can use PQBoot for Windows in conjunction with PowerQuest BootMagic to switch to another operating system without changing your BootMagic configuration settings.
    You can also use PQBoot for Windows without having BootMagic installed. Then the settings you choose are "sticky" and will be in effect until you run PQBoot again or change the active partition with PartitionMagic.

    1. Click Start > Programs > PowerQuest PartitionMagic 8.0 > PartitionMagic 8.0 Tools > PQBoot for Windows.
    Under Windows 95/98/Me, PQBoot for Windows will only run if PQVXD.VXD is in the same directory as PQBOOT32.EXE. PQBoot for Windows displays the primary partitions on your first hard disk.
    2. Choose the partition that you want to boot to.
    PQBoot for Windows will enable you to choose a partition that does not include an operating system. If there is no operating system on the active partition, you must have rescue disks or a boot disk to perform any operations.
    3. Click Restart Now to reboot to the new partition immediately, or click Restart Later to boot to that partition the next time you boot the computer.
    4. Click OK.
    5. If you select Restart Now, a confirmation dialog appears. Click Yes to confirm.

    When you reboot, PQBoot makes the selected partition active and hides the other primary partitions on the hard disk.
