Hello:
I have Win XP Home, and I partitioned my hard drive using the XP partitioning function (I don't remember, at the moment, where I can access it, but that is secondary). However, I now need to add more space to my C dirve. I have partitions C – G, and can "steal" space from any of them, but I may also want to change the spaces of all partitions. Before I do something foolish, may I ask if it is possible to (reaonably) safely resize all partitions. I do make a nightly drive image, so I have reasonable backup. Regards, Hans L |

You can safely resize partitions but you'll need third-party software.
Acronis Disk Director and Norton Partition Magic are two programs to consider. --- Leonard Grey Errare humanum est Hans L wrote: Hello: I have Win XP Home, and I partitioned my hard drive using the XP partitioning function (I don't remember, at the moment, where I can access it, but that is secondary).

Uh huh. You're too stupid to even notice the datestamps in the pretend forum's posts. Like we weren't supposed to recognize that you were spamming here (doing a search and then replying on matched articles with your spam). Another boob spamming through the ****ed up webnews-for-dummies Egghead pretend forum that gateways to Usenet. |
