| Yes, you can repartition a drive with data on it. You can then reformat your new partitions and get on with life. Alternately, if you're rying to save the data, you'll need to use a tool like Partition Magic or, if you're comfortable with linux and some possibly strange results, the free tool called qparted. You'd be better off just backing up your important data and then making your new drive a single partition, reinstalling the OS and installing your applications and restoring your data. That's what I do and it insures a stable system every time. It helps if you're practiced in centralizing your data storage. |
