Yet another HDD partition question.

[Philip_69]

Hi guys,

I currently have a 120 gig HDD loaded with spywares and "educational videos" . HDD has about 24 gig of free space left. I want to partition the drive into 2 partitions, 1 of 15 gig and the other with the rest of the space. How do I go about doing this? Partition Magic 8.0 doesn't work because my drive is NTFS.

Thanks in advance.

Why exactly is your drive loaded with spyware? Have you considered a reformat? Have you considered learning what PM8 can ACTUALLY do?

"Partition Magic 8.0 doesn't work because my drive is NTFS."

eh? PM works with NTFS drives and has as far back as I can remember.

Maybe one of your "educational videos" can help you out.

Yeah, that's been my (limited) experience with Partition Magic as well. Are there any specific protections on the NTFS partition, or might it be damaged?

Btw, is there any precaution i should take ? Anyone has experience with PM 8.02, pls share.
