| 603618 | 2007-10-21 00:00:00 | My hard drive has two partitions, one with too much space, the other with too little for my purpose. Is there a free program that will allow me to repartition my drive? Many thanks, Pat. |

| 603621 | 2007-10-21 01:00:00 | Thanks very much Bletch. At 86+ the simple things I now find a bit more difficult, but I am working on it. God bless, Pat. |

Select Computer Management and then Disk Management from the right hand pane. You can then resize partitions and make new ones from here. | andy (473) | ||

It'd have been better, if it was done, during the install. Other than that, you would need something like Partition Magic The option is actually under Admin Tools / Comp Management / Disk Management. Not under Performance and Maintenance. |

| 603627 | 2007-10-25 01:12:00 | I personally use Acronis Disk Director From Here (www.acronis.com) Its cheaper than Partition Magic and very easy to use. The trial lets you do every thing apart from the final step - then they want $$ Heres what it says from their site: Acronis Disk Director Suite 10.0 trial version has the following limitations: Only partitions of the minimum size (1 cylinder ~ 7,8 MBytes) can be created (both in Windows and in rescue mode) Acronis OS Selector trial period expires after 15 days, and then starts with a 15 seconds delay |
