Hard Disk Partitioning

You missed the key word in the poster's request: FREE. PartitionMagic costs
money. Sorry, I personally don't know of a free disk partitioner and
probably wouldn't use one considering how critical is this component to the
operation of your operating system. Doesn't Windows XP have one? Windows
2000 did (although I didn't like it and I had special needs that mandated
using PartitionMagic).

Yes it's called PM8.01 (www.powerquest.com). I've been using it under XP
since it was released (the PM version, not XP) and I've never had a moment's
trouble with it, nor have I with any of the five previous versions I've
owned.

That's what comes of speed reading. In that case, I don't either.

try http://www.ranish.com/part/ it's a little more compilcated than
partition magic but it's free and non destructive.
