How to change hard drive partitions
I am running windows me and have two partitions (C & D).
I would like to change the partitions from C=15gb and D=25gb to C=30gb and D=10gb. What is the best/easiest way to accomplish this? There is currently nothing on the D drive. Thanks in advance. |

How to change hard drive partitions
Win Me contains no tools that would allow you to change your partition sizes
without the loss of all data. Basically you would have to use fdisk from DOS and wipe out your existing partition structure and then create the two new partitions to meet your requirements. Alternatively you could use third party tools such as the late lamented PowerQuest's Partition Magic (now sadly owned by Symantec) (http://www.powerquest.com/partitionmagic/) or BootitNG from Terabyte Unlimited (http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/). Perhaps easier would be to explain why you feel the need to change your partition sizes. If short of space on C: you could perhaps benefit from moving some of its contents to D: such as your Desktop and MyDocuments objects. -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP Ekim wrote: I am running windows me and have two partitions (C & D).
