Afraid not! Boot Magic works by replacing the MBR with its own, and does all its work before any part of any operating system loads. So you can't affect Boot Magic by tweaking any operating system settings.
Boot Magic will not install on an NTFS file system, which might be what your XP system has. If it has installed at all, it will have found itself a FAT partition to install itself on. You need to make sure that FAT partition is still available and unhidden. If that FAT partition is a data partition, you will get a black screen after selecting it from Boot Magic.
If Boot Magic will not load at all, then one reason might be that the partition that it installed itself to is no longer available at boot time.
