After booting with Ultimate Boot CD, can't access hard drive

#1 Post by pevans » Sat Dec 06, 2008 9:00 am

I wanted to re-partition and backup my hard drive. I booted the system on the Ultimate Boot CD. The computer booted OK, but when I go the the backup options, the only drives that show up are USB jump drives.

How do I get to the Hard Drive for backup and/or re-partitioning?

if you got os already on it you need partitioning software to do that.

If you have 300 or more MB RAM in your PC. Download Parted Magic.
