Description:


Partition Magic has an interface who is composed of the action panel, the menu bar, toolbar, disk map, partition list, wizard buttons, and the legend. You can display/hide and size different parts of the interface to organize the window just the way you want. Menu Bar and Toolbar In the Partition Magic main window, the menu bar and a toolbar appear at the top of the window. The menu bar gives you access to all of features, while the toolbar gives you quick access to commonly used options. You can display or hide the toolbar. Hiding the toolbar increases the display area of partition information.

To back up your system, we recommend using PowerQuest Drive Image(R). Drive Image is a disk imaging tool that lets you create an image of your entire system that can easily be restored. Having a backup lets you run PartitionMagic with the security of knowing that you can get your system back up and running if you run into problems.

PartitionMagic does not support Windows NT Server or Windows 2000 Servers.

Bad Sector Checking is OFF by default. It ships with bad sector checking turned OFF by default. Modern hard disks are designed to avoid bad sectors automatically. However, if you feel that bad sectors may be a problem on your system, turn on bad sector checking (by unchecking the appropriate boxes in the "Skip bad sector checks" list box in Preferences).

Turning on bad sector checking ensures that data is not moved or copied to bad disk sectors; however, this causes the create, move, and resize operations to slow down considerably. Another way to verify that there are no bad sectors on your disk is to run the operating system check utility (CheckDisk or ScanDisk) and do a surface scan before launching it.

Editor's review:


Select Allow 64K FAT Clusters for Windows NT/2000/XP if you want to create FAT partitions with 64K clusters. This lets you use Partition Magic to create FAT partitions up to 4GB.
Because DOS and Windows 3.x, Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Me do not support cluster sizes larger than 32K, you cannot access a 64K partition using these operating systems.
-In Skip bad sector checks group box, select the disks that you do not want to check for bad sectors.
If you disable bad sector checking and your hard disk has bad sectors, data loss can result. This option is selected by default.
-In Set as Read-Only for PartitionMagic group box, select the disks that you do not want this program to change.
