I think that you can get fdisk or a free variant for windows.

one thing i did, was use an old linux installation cd, to parition my dirve :) you can get some of linux .iso images from www.linuxios.org and then use their installation progam

also check out www.sourceforge.net they have a few windows tools that may be of use to you i am sorry i do not know anymore

Good Luck

You can try Ranish Partition Manager. I played with it a little about a year ago, but never really made use of it since I also had a copy of Partition Magic.

yeh fdisk comes with dos and therefore all windows, not sure bout it being present on nt based windows though.

Ranish is good but it can be a bit scary at times, if your looking for a truley simple system save up the forty bucks and go buy Partition Magic, because nothing else touches it for its ease of use, IMHO.

You're probly wanting something that will resize partitions to install inux? If so the only thing I know of is ranish.
