I want to shrink the free space on my grandson's new Toshiba laptop in order
to form a partition for data files. When I attempt to shrink the free space
through Computer Management the program shows 303,743 MB free space before
shrinking and the available size available as 3041 MB. That's not worth
bothering with. I attempted to try this using Acronis Disk Director 10
(Vista compatible) but that program also balked at partitioning. I disabled
the paging file thinking it may have been unmovable and placed near the
outside of the hard disk but that didn't change anything.
What could be blocking the use of all this free space? Toshiba's web site
is of no help on this. I also want to do the same thing to my
granddaughter's new Toshiba (both are of the same model A305D-S6835). This
is the first time I've ever encountered a problem using Acronis Disk
Director -- it's always been a solid performer in past instances. Would
appreciate any wisdom offered.
