Wouldn't it just be easier to slipstream sp4 into your Windows 2000 installation and not have to use Partition Magic at all? It is very easy to do. And it is supported by MS themselves. You can also auto insert your product key, all the latest hotfixes, and even a few tweaks along the way. I do this with my Windows 2000 cd and my Windows XP cd. It makes for a cleaner installation, and less headaches. Peter
