partitining xp

[Vladimir]

Hi I have one basic hard disk and one default partiion c and now I want to
make another partition to instal demo windows server. I have no experience
in this or at least a good one. I tried to partition with partition magic
but that gave me a lot of problems and I had to format the drive. Can you
tell me how to do it as easily as possible and also what should I look for
so I don't have to format again. Thanks a lot

If you already have the OS installed and only have one partition then youre
basically done as far as the disk admin is concerned and you would need
something like partition magic. What you could do is reformat and install
the drive and during the install process us the boot manager to make more
than one partition.
