Issues with Partition Magic

[cheshireccat]

I first went to their help, but it tok forev and their reply was hardly what I would call fluent english. I have partition magic 8 and it installs fine. I use it to resize my drive, click apply and it says it will have to reboo. It does so, then windows begins to boot and I get a blue screen saying it is working for about 3 or 4 seconds thn it just starts windows and nothing happens. The drives don't resize, nothing.... driving me nuts, how do I get it to resize my drives?

Sometimes there is confusion about working on the correct partition on the DOS reboot. This happens quite a lot on multi-HDD systems particularly if mixing SCSI, RAID, SATA, PATA and even USB drives.

I find the best way is to use BiNG since everything is done "under direct vision" rather than using a reboot. If determined to use PM then try it from its pair of floppy diskettes rather than use the reboot from windows.
