Quick question...what is the main difference between a primary and a logical partition. I have a primary partition (C:) where I have Win ME and I have a logical partion (D:) where I have win 2k--both on the same drive...

When I tried to resize the partitions using partition magic 6, it resized the D: partition just fine but it wouldn't resize the C: partition---anyone know why?? This is even when using the partition magic boot disks and booting into dos..both partitions are FAT32..

Thanks,

BJ
