Partition Magic shows
volume      type
c:             check failed
*:              extended
    *:           free space
     *:          free space

when i try to get info on c: it says error #113 partitions overlap

Is there anyway to fix this without loosing my data? Is c: overlapping onto 
the linux drive so maybe some of my data is dead anways?

Also I should have 3 logical partitions: two ext2 and one swap and the 
sizes for the free space are wrong for what i had before.
