I guess I didn't give enough info in my last post, sorry about that... My fat32 partition was resizing as part of a 3-part creation of a new partition for XP. When you do "Create New Partition" in Partition Magic 7, it first resizes, then reallocates, then (optional) sets the partition as active. It gave me the "Out Of Resources" message at 15% of the "checking" stage of part one (before the actual resize). I tried checking online for an answer but couldn't come up with much. At least it didn't fail after starting the resize..that could be disasterous...

I was thinking about just doing a complete upgrade to XP but then I thought about software compatibility issues. Some of my software might not be compatible with NT architecture (mainly Half-Life)... By the way, do you happen to know if Half-Life works in XP?
