Partitioning in a full HDD |
|
|
Hi
I have an 80gb IDE HDD in my PC, and to my knowledge it is partitioned into one big partition. So, all 80gb (or '74.8gb' as computer management tells me) is in one partition. However, of this I have around 20gb free.
So, I have recently downloaded vista BETA 2 and burned it onto DVD, adn want to install it without getting rid of XP. So, what I want to do, is use the spare 20gb on my 80gb HDD and partition that seperately, then install Vista onto it.
However all 80gb is in one large partition. How can I grab that spare 20gb, and put it in a seperate partition?
Cheers in advance
Jezzer
