Hi Ken,

>> I did buy Partition Magic and have needed it to
"see" the first 8 gig of my 13 gig hard drive, but due to the aging of the
system, I can only see those 8 gig, by partitioning into 2 gig virtual
drives. It will not "see" more than 2 gig at a time, nor will it see more
than 8 gig total. I suspect that there is some way to jury rig my PC to take
advantage of all 13.5 gig, but there are limits to what I will do for
something I will not use for an awfully long time. <<

If your machine is capable of having its BIOS upgraded, doing that would
probably reveal the missing 5 gigs. Otherwise, patience may be your best
course of action. <g>
