I was reading (catching up) Linux Mag or Journal yesterday and (November issue I think), they noted a few other partitioning software utilities that may work, and be cheaper. There is parted (but I looked and didn't see one that would resize NTFS, it's free), there is another one (forget the name already, pfht) about $10. And there is: partition commander for $30, (downloadable : http://www.v-com.com/product/pc_ind.html); and partition manager $40 (downloadable : http://www.virtualsoftware.com/ProdPage.cfm?ProdID=2061), and partition resizer v1.3.4 $free ( was also in article, downloadable : http://zeleps.com/ ) Hope this helps. > > PS I may still call you if I need to when I install, if that's OK. > Sure. I left my cell with my wife today. So I'll not be reachable until after 6PM.
