Then possably that person did not ream the documentation properly causing
his loss of data, FIPS worked for me 3 times, flauwlessly.
I dont know about Partition Magic but FIPS allows you to save the prtition

I have returned one system back to its origanal state after 2 years of
service just to see if it would, yes it did.
