Jay,

Partition Magic can reallocate space w/o destroying your data if you've enough free space on the volume.

>I have a box with W2K Professional installed. I'm booting it with Administrator privileges. It has a 19GB hard drive that is being used as the primary volume. I am unable to reallocate any of it. I would like to break it up into a C drive and a D drive, but I don't seem to have the option to do that. It was a basic volume and I changed it to Dynamic thinking that would give me the ability to Extend it and create another partition, but it says that since it was create as a Basic volume originally that it can't. Do I have to blow my OS away, use Partition Magic or something like that and then reinstall the OS? Surprised I can't just reallocate the space on the primary volume for other logical drives.
