Non-destructive NTFS partition resize on Win XP?
A friend of mine had a query, so I thought of posting it here.. Just got my new lappy :-) I chose a Pentium-M (Dothan) 1.6 and am quite happy with the performance which is on par if not better than my desktop for most apps.... Coming to my query, the issue is that it has a single 60 GB parititon on the HDD and I definitely want to divide it to at least 2 partitions.... Is there any freeware partiton utility that lets me do this within the win32 environment...Partition Magic is one such s/w but it isn't free.... If not, then what is the best command line utility to do the same?
