GoBack partitions

My computer used to have XP with GoBack. Recently, it started to reboot as soon as the Windows splash screen came up. It turned out my XP install disc was bad so I installed a (legal) Win 7. It worked fine but when I hooked up my storage drives, Win 7 did not have them in Explorer. They did show up in disk management but everything was grayed out except "delete volume" which I obviously didn't want to do. Searching the Norton forums, I uncovered this regarding a bootup CD with a program on it called Ngbboot.iso:

 

  When you restart the computer, you see the following options:  
  • 1. To unhook GoBack (for typical machines)
  • 2. To repair the Master Boot Record (for typical machines)
  • 3. To Load IDE (typical) CD-ROM Drivers and exit to the command prompt
  • 4. To Load SCSI CD-ROM Drivers and exit to the command prompt
  Type 1 and then press Enter.

4 The utility removes the changes that GoBack made to the boot sector and the partition table and further troubleshooting can proceed. Is this the problem with these drives? Will this work on Win 7? Thanks for you help!
