Installing PartitionMagic
You must have administrative privileges to install PartitionMagic on
a Windows NT, Windows 2000, or Windows XP system.
Installing PartitionMagic 8.0 will not overwrite a previous version,
and it will not affect your existing partitions in any way.
PartitionMagic 8.0 installs into its own directory by default.
IMPORTANT! PartitionMagic must be installed on a local drive,
not on a network drive.
NOTE Before installing PartitionMagic 8.0 under Windows 2000,
ensure you have updated the operating system with the latest
Microsoft Service Pack (SP2 or greater).
As a good computing practice, regardless of operating system, run
chkdsk /f before running Partition Magic to make sure there
are no file system errors on the partition.
1 Insert the Norton PartitionMagic CD into your CD drive.
2 If the installation program does not start automatically, click
Start > Run on the Windows taskbar. Then type
drive
:\AUTORUN, where
drive
is the drive letter of your
CD drive.
3 Click Norton PartitionMagic > Install, and follow the
on-screen installation instructions.
There is sometimes a delay after you click Install. If you click
it twice, you will start two instances of the installation and will
have to cancel the second one.
4 After installation is complete, click Back > Exit to close the
setup screen.
