Shrinking Partitions

I hope you don't just delete the System Reserved without doing the proper things first. Your PC won't boot.

No, that's not what I meant.

I am just going to eliminate the Recovery and tools partitions and shrink the hdd to about 130 or so gbs, so I can do a backup of System and OS partitions.

Sorry for the confusion on my part.:)

Hi PSC02007,

Since I am new to this Backup and Image business, you are Shrinking your Active HDD part, C Partition to 130GB, so your Backup routine Go Faster and a Smaller Image or Clone sizes ... right!?!?

Thanks,

G! :)

Yes, that's exactly why I am doing that.

I only want to backup the OS, and programs.

The rest of the info is duplicated on other hdds, so I don't want to backup that info, which will give me a shorter backup time and a much smaller one if I have to do a restore.
