What's the best (safest and most reliable) way to expand the
partition to the rest of the space?

can't read there but can waste time here?

My question was "what is best and safest," asked where, assumedly,
there are those who know. A line in an advertisement tells me
exactly nothing. If you doubt that I have some Madoff stock to sell
you.

No, you said <quote>
Hi..you can resize th epartition using norton partition magic pro...
</quote>

to which I responded with the above, and I stand by that. That question
and much more is covered off well in their features and capabilities
listings. PM is, IMO, the best program out for partition work right now.
Proper written attribution in a post keeps things a lot cleaner and if it
gets out of hand or misread, then that becomes more obvious too. Here you
completely snipped everything but one line of my response and added your
own, with zero attribution. So even the question you asked wasn't present
in your post.

No offense meant, but with proper contectualization and trimming/quoting
of messages to limit the display to the specific question and details of
your situation creates a much higher chance of getting the response you
need or at least someone may ask further clarification questions. Only
non-relevant information to your question should be trimmed; anything
pertinent to the question at hand should remain quoted.

And my sympathies if you have "Madoff" stock. I know, you were just being
facetious but ... you also seem to have taken offense, so I felt I
couldn't pass on it<g>.

You may wish to start a new thread (not a new post) to restate the current
question and the relevent information to go along with it. All useful
information seems to have fallen by the wayside due to the trimming that
was done. Most people don't re-assemble posts once marked as read to pull
the most meaningful data out of htem and then guess at what the problem at
hand is.

HTH,
