Hey, I have a 27 gig HD. 7 gigs are for WinXP which i set up during the setup. I formatted it in NTFS. The other 20 gigs I figured i'd deal with onces XP is installed. Now that its installed, I went to look for the HD utility that can be found in WinNT. Well, I guess Microsoft decided not to include it. So, my problem is, I wanna partition the remaining 20 gigs so I can use it. I don't want to go out and buy Partition Magic 7, so is there any other way I can get this done? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I know I've been plugging this site way too much, but I've gotten all my answers here. Good forum for any XP related questions.

You can use Computer Management to partition drives.
In Start->Run type compmgmt.msc /s and the Computer Management Console will load. On Storage->Disk Management you can edit all you disks, create and delete partitions and even change drive letters.

Hope this helps. If you need more help please PM me.
