windows and mandrake linux problems

Apperantly I was supposed to get a book and a cd with the mandrake-linux complete set that I didnt get it keeps reffering to a cd #3 that isnt there,it came with 2 cds and an empty 3rd cd area which is supposed to have partition magic on it, well anyway I was installing it without knowing(im a linux newbie) and it said in the installation that it was creating a partition for linux ok I thought good, then when I rebooted Igot Lilo and had linux or windows as an option I tried going into windows to make sure everything was going alright and is said windows ini file to large, what did it do?, install on the same partition? whenin linux I can see my normal files under /mnt anyone know of anyway I can fix this? I have been looking for support for over 5 hours and it appears there is a TOTAL lack of it,once its installed there is no troubleshooting help anywhere, manuals or the internet, hope you can help me and thanks for your time
