Partition Magic 7 was included in a cover disk of PC plus about 2 years ago. It might be downloadable.

OOOOOH! There is nothing more annoying than someone with your attitude. I am talking about companies like MS that shaft us users constantly and use us a testers and still charge us extortionate fees.

Kindly keep your rants to yourself.

================================================== =
he was quite correct. i feel very strongly about this as well, and fortunately for you, because there are others, less charitably inclined than myself, who also have an interest in those who support and encourage software piracy...

For one moment when I looked at the thread title, I thought you were on about wall partitions

cheers Noddy- is this just a case of going to Control Panel > System > Advanced etc?

That's it. If you don't use hibernation you can disable that under power options - freeing up disk space equivalent to the size of RAM.

The simplest thing you can do is move the windows swapfile/hibernation files to the D: drive (assuming there is space there).

If you think that MS charges too much for their software, you have a choice to not use their software. Therefore, my point still stands, if you won't pay for it, don't use it. If you think that you have any kind of valid argument, PM me your contact details and I'll gladly forward them onto FaST.

You are a common criminal, who is stealing someone's livelihood, whether they are rich like Bill Gates, or not like a small independent developer, it makes no difference at all.

Get off your soap box......and go see if there is any coffee.....

Did you even click the link? It resizes the following filesystems (note that fat32 and ntfs are included so will work with your XP system):-

Sorry Bob!!

I just panicked when I saw the word Linux, like all true Windows cowards...

Many thanks

As with all partition managing software, the usual caveat still applies - make a backup first before you play.

[Cowboy Bob]

No need to pay for it tho...ooops, did I say that out loud?

As a software developer myself, there is nothing that makes me more annoyed than people with your attitude. Someone, somewhere is trying to make a living, and that person could be one of us. If you can't afford it/won't pay for it, don't use it.
