I have a new laptop that came with Vista 64. My version of Acronis
Disk Director doesn't support Vista 64. is there any reason why I
can't just boot to DOS and re partition using Partition Magic for DOS?
Depending on the version of PM you should not be using it period. Assuming your's is
not one of the versions that screws up, I'd imagine it does not matter what the OS is
as long as it supports the filesystem type & version.
Doesn't ADD allow you to make a boot cd? Could have sworn I have a TI
GParted or almost any of the LiveCD linux distros out there.

I had a really bad episode with Partition Magic a couple years ago where it
FUBARd a partition and I stopped using it. I've been using Acronis since
and really like it. If you can't use Acronis, I second Ben's recommendation
for Gparted.
