No, the FST wizard cannot repair faulty partitions. What exactly do you
mean when you say that one partition doesn't work?

Try run,type:diskmgmt.msc If the other partition is listed,L.click on
it,go to
actions,all,select "make active",close out.If it doesnt show,go to
run,type:cmd
In cmd type:DiskPart In DiskPart,type:list disk type:list volume type:HELP
for all cmds

No.

Exactly what does "one works and one doesn't" mean? What's wrong with
the one that "doesn't work"?
 
Thank you all for your advice and help, i now realise that there are two
windows home edition operating systems on my hard drive. One of them seemed
to have stopped all the services making access to help, explorer, programmes
unavailable. So in msconfig i used the modified bootini. and now my comp
starts in the default system that is operating ok. thanks again
