In a few words:  I thought they already did that!  :-)

I had a windows 98 installation that consistently re-wrote the
disk-signature of my dual boot system's 2nd hard drive, and kept rendering
that damned  drive's partitions hidden... so , I couldn't boot from it until
I went into partition magic, and made than active again!

Need I say that I formatted the win98 partition very soon after that? And, I
haven't touched Win98 since!
