I don't care about the utilities, but the BIOS? If that is true then
you can't just upgrade a hard drive on Compaq's with a simple clean
install... you would have to restore the hidden BIOS section first
.... surely that can't be the way they set their systems up.

I may be mistaken, but I think the Compaq partition actually has all
of the code for the BIOS or some utilities on it. You may not want
to get rid of it.

I am working on Compaq EVO. It has a 40GB DiamondMax hard drive and
is formatted as a single NTFS Primary Active partition. No other
partition is showing. However I suspect there is a small Compaq
hidden partition. Using Partition Magic 8 I can not resize and add
any partitions. I want to resize the existing partition to 30 GB
and make a FAT32 10GB Extended logical partition with the remain 10GB.
