how to remove read-only from second hard drive
I have two hard drives both using the same OS WinXP. They are both
partitioned by Partition Magic 7.0. I am attempting to change the partition on the second hard drive. I cannot because it is set "read only". How do I remove the read only restriction? |

how to remove read-only from second hard drive
Hi, Nurmi.
What does Disk Management tell you about the drives and their partitions? Many users (even some gurus) have not yet found Disk Management, which debuted in Win2K almost 4 years ago. The quickest way is to type at the Run prompt: diskmgmt.msc If that doesn't work, I guess you'll have to use PM again. Or ask PowerQuest. RC -- R. C.
