Peter,

After going to the web site for the product, I could not find out a major
issue that is important to me - how large a hard drive can the program
handle??? With hard drives showing up on the market greater than 100 Gig
(have recently seen 120 Gig drive advertised), this gets very important -
not only how large a total drive the program can handle, but how does it
deal with creating any size partitions, no matter which OS or Fat is being
used.

The author of the program brings up Partition Magic in his FAQ info - I
know the latest version of that program can only handle hard drives to 80
Gig in size, so that was what triggered the issue with this program and its
ability to handle LARGE hard drives.

Virginia, you can format the drive into however many partitions you want.
FAT16 has many limits as to large the partition can get which is why FAT32
is better suited to large hard drives up to about 130 gigs.  If the
utilities have problems with win98, there should not be any problems with
the FAT32 table.  Do you use many of these said utilities?

I've had at one time, eight separate operating systems on one computer and
each had it's own file system too (win95a, 98, NT4, Linux, BeOS, DOS 6,
OS/2, Solaris 7) and there was no conflicts, especially since this was all
on one hard drive.  I used the Ranish partition manager for that work
