pardon me?!

although it takes some learning what goes where, and a bit of jaws cursoring, I can do any of the needed items on a windows machine.

and I am a total

I just what, two days ago partitioned and did the initial formatting on a TByte drive that I picked up on sale, just stuck it in the slot I keep open and ready to wire on one of my boxes, and went through the procedure.

so, I disagree with real-time practical experience behind me,

Uh, hi.
My wife laughed so hard when I told her how crazy it is you are playing with partitioning software, but I felt I had to answer. I know that the windows disk management is semi accessible. Partition magic isn't going to help much because I've tried it. You are probably going to need some help with this one dude. Blind people aren't meant to play partition games with other reindeer. I don't mean to be rudolph but that is just insane. Write back if you find anything. lol ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dave Durber" <d.durber@xxxxxxxxx>

Subject: Disk partitioning software that is accessible using JAWS


Hello Everyone:

As I have mentioned before, I purchased 2 new SATA internal hard drives, 2
TB capacity.

I used an disk image program called Image for Windows, which is very
accessible using JAWS, to create an image of my existing aging 160 GB IDE
drive.

I intend to use Image for Windows, to restore the disk image to one of the 2
TB drives.

However, when I have done that, there will be an unallocated partition
containing the remaining available free space for that drive.

What disk partitioning software can I use, that is accessible using JAWS, to
resize the newly created partition and create, allocate  and format the
remaining extended partition for that drive?

Thanks in anticipation.

Cave Durber
