Is there a way to resize an existing partition?

[bluaki]

...without deleting the contents of the partition and without paying money for a program? Also, without using Gparted?

I've tried downloading a few programs and trials and stuff but they can't do anything without being paid for. I downloaded gparted LiveCD but it gives me display driver errors when I try to boot it.

I have a 80GB drive which is split approx. into a 50GB partition that I'm currently using and a 30GB partition of Ubuntu that I want to delete because it can't boot (gives errors because some spyware scanning program screwed up half the files)

On an unrelated note, is there any difference between RAM chips of the same memory size, same interface type (PC3200), and different brand? It's kind of odd that I can find a 1GB chip for $50 one place and a very similar one for $120 elsewhere.

I probably ask for a bit too much help here. Oh well edumacate;

Some RAM chips are more reliable (ex. Crucial, Apple) and are less likely to cause your system to crash or cause a Kernel Panic. Third-party RAM is more likely to give you problems and is therefore less expensive.

As far as downloading a program, you can download Disk Director here which will recover/remove/manage any partitions on your computer:

Partition Magic works great, but it's not free. And why the hell don't you want to use GParted, anyway?

Kay so where are the Corsair, Patriot, ect computers?

Then she should just get help with GParted rather than searching for another partition application.

I did that once and fucked everything up.

I'd just get a new hard drive and reformat the old one and restart because I'm lazy

from what she's said it would seem that the problem's just with the livecd, not gparted

i would recommend just using, say, an ubuntu livecd which also includes gparted and apparently it would work on her system given that she had urbangtoo installed at some point
or wait maybe she did that silly windows install thing dunno
