I have 160 gigabyte internal hard drive, I was using for logical storage. Ever since I stored Goback on it, my primary c drive could no longer read it as a storage drive. It is like the 160 gigabyte hard drive is useless. Even when I try it in other machines it is not recognized. Goback tries to start, but then I get an error message saying there is no operating system to start Goback. I’m not able to install the operating system unless I can get this hard disk changed to primary.
There is over 40 unused gigabytes (on this 160 gigabyte internal hard drive) for which an operating system could be loaded if I could partition the hard drive.
So I purchased Norton PartitionMagic to do the partition. Norton PartitionMagic
says I cannot make any changes to my partition because GoBack is detected. It says to disable Goback then restart PartitionMagic. If there were an operating system installed on this disk I could disable Goback. Goback tries to start. Then the error message says “operating system not found”
What the proper syntax to delete Norton Goback completely using either command console or command prompt? I believe if I could delete GoBack, then I could work on all my other problems, and get this hard drive partitioned, so I can load and operating system on it.
I’ve never tried to use Norton tech support. I’m sure they are closed now, but are they helpful?

There is an easer way to Totally remove Goback form your Master Boot Record (MBR).
As your machine is rebooting, hold down "CTRL" and "ALT" don't let go. Press "G" key count to 10, release, then hold again the "G" key, count to 10 release, hold again, count to 10, release. It takes about 3 reboots. Finally you will get the screen you are waiting for. It warns you are about to remove Goback form your MBR. It says press any key to cancel, or press "F" to totally remove Goback form your from your MBR.
Reply:If you intend to format, use the gold old fdisk, It does not know or care what is on the partition before deleating it
