Toshiba Tablet XP Home/Student with plenty of memory. I have the
program DriveImage XML. At one point it says to create a partition
somewhere for the image it's going to create. I have a 40G external
plug and play HD. I'd like to create a partition on it without
disturbing other files and folders I have on it. There's plenty of
free space. Various resources say use XP Disk Management to create
that partition. So when I go there it appears as they say but when
they say click on the free space choose the selection "Create new
partiton." I have right clicked everywhere in that program on the
USBHD gui and no where do I get a create new partition. I get OPEN/
EXPLORE / CHANGE DRIVE LETTER AND PATHS / FORMAT / DELETE PARTITION /
PROPERTIES / HELP. I was hoping to put an image there of my laptops
drive C that could be restored, an exact copy with all programs etc.
ERU NT doesn't serve me, I've tried that so this seems to be the way.
Any help that is understandable to a moderate tech user here? Thanks
so much. jack
