Hi,

Is it possible to move XP to another disk partition? It wasn't possible for
previous
versions (although someone claimed to have a procedure for moving NT4). If
so,
how?

Thanks,
Gary

It is possible, provided you massage your partition structure so that
the new partition will use the drive letter that was previously used
by the old partition.

Why do you need to do this? If you use a partitioning utility such
as BootItNG (http://www.bootitng.com) then you can resize and
manipulate your existing partitions without destroying the contents.
The 30 day trial version of BootItNTG is fully functional.

Good luck
