Partition logic works from within windows, so you can just load windows in as usual then install partition logic and make your partitions as you please, you do not have to do it pre windows

blackduck30

the version that i got and put to disk wont load ???

i must of got the wrong version

it was the latest version that needed to be put to a cd-r or dvd, i did the cd-r so that i would have it also

should i put it on dvd ??

i will try again with the cd-r that i burned

**mike2020learnin** · 08-25-2007, 09:28 PM

okay

i realy dont know what i am doing wrong but i guess i need some thing to get my head out of my %$#@

i still can not get this to work have tried all ways to get partition logic to work

now none of my programs will open it and the cd won't load

i say again that i fallowed the steps at the sit and they won't work to install or burn this program so i can use it !!!

**blackduck30** · 08-25-2007, 09:52 PM
