Subject: Re: [g4u-help] I messed up
Hubert, and Michael, thanks for the quick responses. I understand about how
to extending a partition, I've had to do that in the past. But this time,
any partitioning tools I've tried show the drive as 91.7GB with no available
space to extend the partition to. I have tried Gparted, and Paragon Hard
Disk Manager. Both show no available space on the drive, it just looks as
if the raw disk configuration was overwritten.
The OS, is Windows XP, with SP2 which fixes the 137GB drive limitation.
Actually, before I copied the drive, it did show the full drive size.
Again, thanks for your help.
Jeff.

What is "it"?
You probably want to use PartitionMagick or so to fix your partition table
and expand the related file systems. This is beyond what g4u does.
