Creating a new drive.
All I can find is how to create a new partition on Vista.

I reinstalled my operating system a few days ago and I want to make another
drive [you know, like a G:. or Z:, or whatever] to install another operating
system.

Any help?
This is as far as I can get..

videos at <a href="http://tinypic.com">TinyPic</a></font>

Thanks.

If you want another drive in Vista, you need to add another drive.
Sorry to be that simple.

But if you mean divide the drive up into smaller parts (partitions) then
that *is* the right term. It would have been better had it been done
when you loaded Vista. But with 3rd party programs like Partition
Magic, you can make the current C: drive smaller and then use the spare
space for another drive like E:.

PS I'm not touching that jumble at the bottom of your post.

I watched your video. And you used the entire drive for Vista. You
have no room to make another drive. Back to my first reply.
