Any good suggestions for a tool to partition a hard-drive? I'm getting a laptop with a 80GB Hard-drive and with XP Pro preloaded from Dell and want to be able to split the HD 40Gb for XP Pro/40Gb for XP Home Jeff > Any good suggestions for a tool to partition a hard-drive?

Pro is better! Thanks for the info tho. :-) Jeff > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > You can use a utility such as Partition Magic... > but if your machine has XP pro...I would not bother to install XP home Hi Jeff, Patition Magic is one of the better partitioning applications. One, in fact, i use a lot. I do, however, have to agree with Philo, if you machine is coming pre-installed with XP Pro then there isn't much use putting XP Home on the machine. XP Pro is by far the better of the two operating systems.  SignatureJohn Barnett MVP Associate Expert http://xphelpandsupport.mvps.org The information in this mail is supplied "as is".
