I just bought PartitionMagic v8.01. I have a Sony Vaio laptop that
came with Windows XP Home on it and the 20GB hard drive was broken
into 6GB on the boot C: drive and the remaining is on the D: drive. I
wanted to merge the two together and since I couldn't do it with XP
(because the C: drive is the boot partition), I found I needed
PartitionMagic.
So I'm reading through the manual for PartitionMagic and I run across
this 1024 cylinder limit, or something about a 2GB or 8GB limit. If I
just want to merge my boot partition (C: drive) and my D: drive, will
this be a problem? Will I have some kind of booting problem, that the
manual speaks of? I purchased my laptop in February 2001, so it's not
THAT old, but is it still a possible problem? XP Home is the only OS
I'm running on this system. Thanks.
