Re: Partition Help

With me it just created a Primary without asking - in retrospect, I assume
the 'extend' icon was adressing this, it didn't seem clear at the time, so
now I have been relieved of my Win2K boot option (not entirely good) is
there any particularly good step to take at this moment?

Otherwise I'll remove the V.Partition and re-do it all from scratch.

Someone mentioned the graphics drivers - for the 32bit, will the standard
drivers be O.K. ?
