- Assuming I have removed all the other partitions on the hard disk, is
- there any way to safely increase the size of the primary C: partition
- without losing any data? Are there any reliable utilities that will
- do this?
-
- In case it matters, I'm using a Maxtor Panther P0-12S 1.2GB SCSI hard
- disk and a DTC 3290HD SCSI EISA controller. I have a primary
- partition of 200MB and an 800MB extended partition (DOS 5.0 format).
- I'd like to expand the primary to at least 400MB.
-
- Thanks!
