How do you use Ranish?

I have win 98 installed on my PC and I want to split my single existing partition into 2 so I can add win2000. How do I use Ranish to add a partition without destroying what I already have?
I see this on the screen... do I go under #1 and put the partition size as whatever size I want.. then continue with their instructions? I keep doing it up until they say formating this will destroy all the info and I get scared thinking it will destroy everything else I have on my disk. What do I do? THANKS SO MUCH FOR ANY INFO!!!

You basically just change the numeric boundary of your first partition to an earlier sector. Note though that Ranish is NOTHING like Partition Magic. It'll change the boundary but you have to defrag and get all your data to "one side" of the drive yourself.
