I've used Partition Magic for years on all sorts of systems. I know it
works just fine on 2 of my XP systems. However, I just got a Compaq
Presario Notebook with XP Pro and installed PM 8 on it hoping to
resize the 40g C: and then, in another pass through PM, create two new
logical drives in the unallocated space after resizing C: ( I usually
do just one operation at a time.)
I went through a very familiar procedure to do this just as I have done
many times in the past but C: just wouldn't resize. PM went through its
reboot routine and the messages from PM looked normal. However, when
the system got back to XP, C still took up the entire 40g HD.
What did I miss or is it possible the proprietary nature of the Compag
OEM XP will not permit repartitioning of the HD?
Will really appreciate any help here.
Thank you.
