Partition Magic is commercial software.  Buy it at your friendly
neighbourhood software store.

fsck is NOT a disk partitioning software.  From the man page:

NAME
       fsck - check and repair a Linux file system

SYNOPSIS
       fsck  [  -AVRTNP  ]  [  -s  ] [ -t fstype ] [ fs-options ]
       filesys [ ... ]

DESCRIPTION
       fsck is used to check and optionally repair a  Linux  file
       system.

I am almost perfectly sure that these symptoms have nothing to do with the
partitioning.  What kind of hardware do you have?  Which processor and what
speed?  How much memory and swap space?
