In that case, Partition Magic should be able to do what he needs.  It
will/can resize the partition and let him create a new one.  A lot depends
on how much free space is available.

Ummm... You can't install NT on a FAT32 partition.  Someone needs to do
some reading again.  Only W2K is FAT32 capable.

More details.  Are you wanting to set up NT in the same partition as 98?
Either way, it shouldn't be hard.  Just make sure they are in different
directories and it won't write over your stuff.

Hi all,

I have a laptop with a large drive (30GB) that has Windows 98 on a FAT32

partition of about 10GB and the other 20GB has Ghost images for backups
and 
some testing scenarios.  I would love to be able to repartition this 
machine so I can add NT to this machine but I'm not sure of the best way
to 
do this without losing the 98 setup.  PartitionMagic 4.0 was initially
used 
to setup the drives on this machine so that is available to me.

Has anyone done this or seen any good documentation on how to accomplish

this without losing my 98 configuration?

Thanks in advance,

Kevin Bachelder
