Does anyone know of any freeware or shareware partitioning software that will allow you to partition WITHOUT losing data currently on your hard drive? I know about partition magic, but I can't afford it and don't need all its features.

Doesn't Partition Magic have a 30 day trial or something?

What filesystems are you wanting to resize? I know of fips that can handle FAT32 partitions.

Nope... partition magic now only shows you what it can do, but won't do it unless you are registered. I am working with a fat32 partition and want to change it into two partitions. You'd think that microsoft would include something like this in their operating systems by now....

Whats wrong with the partioning systems that come with the OS?

Win NT Kernals is the best I've seen all around.

The other one aren't great but atleast do the job.
