John Martin,

Not sure where you're getting your validation or your approach to answering 
questions. I've used Norton Partition Magic just fine with no sighted help 
and JAWS. I've also used the more archaic MS partitioning application by 
launching diskpart in the run dialog with the /help parameter to get a list 
of the commands and parameters.

Both worked just fine when I partitioned my 2 Tb drive.

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
