Hi -
I was just wondering...
My XP is taking up my whole HDD - But I want to install Vista on a new
Partition (maybe 3/4of my hdd) - Does VPC allow you to split partitions?
Thankyou,
Ryan

No. VPC is for running operating systems in a window on your desktop. You
can use VPC to run Vista but it will be very slow. What you need is a
second hard drive for Vista or partitioning software like Partition Magic.

Just a note on partitions. I purchased Partition Magic and planned to use it
on one of my units. What I discovered was that it would not work! I have
Norton Go Back running on that unit and I found out that you have to totally
uninstall Go Back to use Partition Magic. Since I cannot do that, I cannot
partition that unit! :-(
