    Will VB.net do what I want?

    I'm considering purchasing something to build a few small apps for the company I am with right now. I've looked at vb.net and was wondering if I would be lacking anything I needed if I just purchased vb and not the entire visual studio. The first thing I'm going to build is an app for my end...

    Converting to dynamic disk without 1mb unallocated

    Is there any way to do this besides formatting the disk and recreating the partitions with 1mb unallocated? Microsoft just says you have to have it. They don't say what you have to do if you don't have that space available.
