Partition Magic 3.0 (old!) and Windows XP

[New_Leaf]

A simple question:  Can I use Partition Magic 3.0 to resize partitions in Windows XP?

I bought this program years ago, and used it successfully on my old computer.  I now need to use it on a new PC.  I'll upgrade if necessary, but if the old version will still do the job, I'd rather do it that way.  Any thoughts?

Yes.
A HDD is a HDD...

Of course XP can do this for you also in the setup phase...

You need version 7 or later to have joy with XP and large hard drives with NTFS. 3 was made loooong before XP.

I still use FDisk from DOS 6.2...i as you can tell am not sold on NTFS.
Til they fix it i won't switch.

If aren't going to operate with old versions of Windows , u can  give Partition Magic 3 as a keepsake to someone or throw it out.
Upgrade it or if ur budget is limited use Xp partition tools.

Like you I have seen the RAW problem too often for my liking.
