BOOTPART-DOS Program-problem

Hello,
I am trying to install Linux onto my Microsoft MBR..... I've installed the Linux OS and a website I read recommended using a program called BOOTPART....I downloaded and click the .exe file but it opens and closes in like 1 second.
Anyone know how to keep it open?
Heres the website I read.... See what you think.

Run bootpart from a Cmd session.

Thanks but can you explain exactly how to do that?
I've gone to run and then typed cmd before but when I get the command prompt and type Bootpart nothing happens.... Do I need to try to type bootpart.exe??
Thanks,
Jonathan

Where did you save the bootpart.exe file? You have to be in the same directory in CMD.
