currupted my hard drive

Hello, earlier tonight I was installing BETA version of Mandrake Linux 9.0 and I realised I needed to partition my drive. I tried making the partition within mandrake but ther wasnt an option within the mandrake setup. So i go into my WindowsXP and do the disk management option but there want a partition option. So I tried doing the DOS partition program within Comand Promt, which I realised wouldnt work because Comand Promt is just a emulator of DOS. So I stuck in a Windows 98 intall disk and went to DOS from there. when i typed the comand for partitioning I did all the right options and stuff but when it started the process it froze. so restarted with the windows 98 disk still in. i went into DOS again. stuck in the PartitionMagic cd and the .exe wouldnt run for sum reason. at this point i think im hitting a streak of BAD LUCK. so then i try booting back into WindowsXP but it tells me that the C: drive is all CURRUPT! but i really dont want to format my drive. any ideas guys?????
