I may not be reading the question "just right"...
If he only added software, and that included DiskManager,
I think he may have wiped out his hard drive information and data.
As far as I know, DiskManager is not something you "add" to an
existing, working hard drive that was set up properly from the
beginning. I (and the list) would need a lot more info before I /(we)
could make a reasonable guess about this.
What was your friend trying to do with DiskManager?
