- Progress bars are an estimation only and may pause for several
minutes, even though PartitionMagic is still working correctly.
If you think your computer has locked up, please be patient and
allow PartitionMagic to finish the operation.
- You should set up removable media drives so that they are the
last drives on your system. Drives are assigned priorities as
follows: primary master, primary slave, secondary master,
secondary slave. You should not have a fixed hard drive
set up as the secondary master if you have a removable media
drive set up as the primary slave. If you have two IDE
controllers, you should connect removable media drives to
the second controller, after any hard drives. If you have a
RAID configuration, disconnect any removable media (such as
a Zip drive) before using PartitionMagic. If you do not
configure removable media drives as the last drives, you
will see disk numbering inconsistencies in the PartitionMagic
interface, and the wizards will not work on your system.
- Under Windows 9x, PartitionMagic and the operating system may assign
different drive letters to USB, USB2, and FireWire drives. This
problem is a result of the inconsistent way the operating system
assigns drive letters for removable devices. If the drive
letters appear differently in PartitionMagic than they do in "My
Computer," PartitionMagic can still work on the removable drive.
5. UNINSTALLING WINDOWS ME
--------------------------
If you use PartitionMagic (or FDISK or any other partitioning
software), you should be aware of the following Microsoft warning.
IMPORTANT: You should not attempt to uninstall Windows Me if the
partition information for your hard disk or disks has changed
since you last installed Windows Me successfully. Windows Me
creates a backup copy of your partition information in the
Suhdlog.dat file at the end of a successful installation, and
Uninstal.exe restores the partition information listed in the
Suhdlog.dat file to your hard disk during the uninstall. If the
partition information on your hard disk or disks has changed
since you last installed successfully (specifically, since the
Suhdlog.dat file was created), then you might experience partial
or complete data loss as a result of attempting to uninstall
Windows Me.
