Partitiion 127G
Have a 160G HHD. I want to make one partition, but I'm limited to 127G. Is
it possible to make a partition then 127G? Tried EASEUS Partition Master, Paragon Partition Manager, & Norton PartitionMagic. All limit me to 127G - System Volume Information. Thanks |

The 127Gb limit is becaause of your BIOS - check the motherboard
manufacturer's web site to see if there as an update to the BIOS to allow for larger hard drives. "Julie" wrote in message ... Have a 160G HHD. I want to make one partition, but I'm limited to 127G.

It may also matter whether you want FAT32 or NTFS format. -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada) |

I don't really know,
but you might simply divide 160 in half. that way you can partition once and be done with it. also, it wouldn't be a bad idea to change the default for mydocs from the partition with the o.s. to the new one. that way if the time comes you have to reformat or reinstall the o.s., you will have mydocs preserved in the new partition. or you can simply copy your default my docs to the new partition occasionally. the point is to expect the unexpected -- -- db·´¯`·...¸)))º DatabaseBen, Retired Professional ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This NNTP newsgroup is evolving to: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/default.aspx "Julie" wrote in message ...
