This worked great. The only thing was I had to skip the part using the 3.5 floppy but that did not matter I did what I wanted it to. When I got my computer I made the drive too small and this let me make the drive bigger without loosing data.
Thanks

I wanted to upgrade to Windows xp, but didn't want to save all my stuff and format my hard drive. This solved my problem. I now have Windows ME on drive C\:, and Windows XP on Drive F\:, and chose which I want to use on startup. It was easy, and I'm definitely no Geek.

My C drive was too small and I kept getting messages and having problems. I bought this program and took some from D and gave it to C and my problems are gone, except for that guy at work that drives me crazy! Norton was no help with him. (: It was a little tricky at first so I used the chat help and the gentleman who helped me was great. He walked us right throught the process and I was able to get my system back to normal. Thanks Norton!
The title MAGIC is warranted... September 17, 2008

After deciding to upgrade my laptop's harddrive, I wasn't sure how I was going to move the image from the old to the new without totally reinstalling everything. With a desktop it's easy...you just plug the new drive temporarily in to the drive controller, setting it up as a secondary, then use the software that comes with the drive to copy an image from old to new, but that won't work in a laptop. Partition Magic makes this easy to do if you have an external USB drive handy. Just plug the drive in, fire up Partition Magic, remove any existing partion from the external drive, then copy the entire partition on your laptop to the external. Close down the laptop, and put the new drive in it. Boot the laptop from the Partition Magic CD-ROM, it has it's own operating system to run the utility from the CD drive. Copy the partition from the USB external drive to your new laptop drive, and reboot from the new drive. The last step is to either expand the partition on the new drive to use all of the new drive space, or create other partitions. You can even use Partition Magic to help you create machines with multiple operating systems. As I said, this product earns it's title...it is MAGIC!

Purchased and installed program and immediately received error message. If I had researched this product first I never would have purchased. Apparently this error message is a program defect that is well blogged on at several Internet sites discussing same problem without resolution. I went to product website which charges $10 per issue to attempt resolution. Ultimately, returned product (hopefully will get credit) and removed program from computer. Rated 1 star because could not go lower.
