Create partitions on windows without a restart ??
-
Hi I have an 80GB hard disk that is made into only one primary partition (NTFS). now I want to create a secondry partition and sub-devide this logical partition into 3 logical partitions as I can make using FDesk under DOS. but I want to do this using windows (or a 3rd party tool running on windows) and if possible without restarting.. Any suggestions ?

If you don't mind losing the data currently on the partition, you can repartition a disk using the Disk Management component of Computer Management (in Administrative Tools). However, I think you're saying that you want to repartition your only hard disk. For that you'll need something like PartitionMagic[^]. Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder

Thank you but PartitionMagic needs a restart and actually partitions the HD under dos..

You cannot change the size of your system partition while Windows is running. You will have to restart. Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder
