My system is running Win98SE.

I have PowerQuest PartitionMagic 7.0 installed.

I just bought a 80 GB HDD (Seagate ST3200822A),
which exceeds PM7's capabilities. So, I need to
either upgrade to or buy PM8. But, due to
Symantec and PowerQuest's deal, I hear people are
very disappointed with Symantec's handling of
PowerQuest's software.

Could you please elaborate on this disappointment? What exactly do ppl. say
(is it just because it is Symantec (the "little Microsoft"))?
Norton PartitionMagic 8.0 is in fact PowerQuest PartitionMagic 8.0 using a
different name an colors and got rid of Datakeeper.


Is it still possible to get a version of PM8 that
has not been processed by Symantec?
