Problem with Partition Magic

Having a problem running Partition Magic, below is the solution as posted on the Symantec site.
My problem is that I know nothing about DOS.
Wondering if someone can help on this?
To fix this error try any of the following:
• Run the program with the switch /pqb to create the batch file on a floppy disk. An example of the command:
pqmagic /pqb=a:\batch.pqb
• Run the program with a NULL value assigned to the switch /pqb. An example of the command:
pqmagic /pqb=null
• Boot from a floppy that loads CD-ROM support and a RAM drive. Then run the program.

Use solution 3 - make the rescue diskettes and run the program from that instead of from within Windows.
