We have an existing 2 Gb NTFS partition(C)on an NT server with all the system files and Exchange. It is running out of disk space, but we have another 7 Gb partition (D). Do you know of an easy way to resize the 2Gb partition, using some of the disk space on the 7Gb partion?

Resizing NTFS Partitions

Try using Partition Magic to resize the C drive. Also, to free up some drive space you can move your paging file to the d drive, and check the directory c:\winnt for a memory dump file, and delete it if it exists. If the server has ever blue screened on you and created a dump file, it is hogging disk space as well. The file is called memory.dmp<br>

As Bruce says, Partition Magic should work fine. Keep in mind however that NT cannot use a system partition larger than 7.8 GB, so be careful not to resize above that. <p> Jeff<br><a href=mailto: masterracker@hotmail.com> masterracker@hotmail.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
