The steps as I figured them out myself are as follows. when I wanted to increase my data partition I first had to decrease my system partition. That gave me some space to work with. So I decreased my system partition by the amount that I wanted my data partition to increase. This obviously gave me some unallocated space, so the next thing I did was open the data partition and copied the amount of unallocated space and added it to the size of my existing data partition. This made my data partition the size I wanted by reassigning the unallocated space. Partition magic would automatically take space from another partition when you wanted to increase a given partition but at least for me this program doesn't. The thing is this program in my opinion works just fine if not better and the amount of steps is not significant at all.

Thanks, this is exactly what I have been doing with no luck. For some reason the program just will not recognise that 2.5 gig of free space. I can see it but the program just will not display it it shows in the free space before the operation as zero bites. Max. chris hallsworth wrote: > Try the resize or move options.
