i'm trying to create another partition on my primary hard drive to install vista, and i'm running .x64 XP right now, and i can open partition magic (8.02) and go through the process of creating a partition, then click the green check mark, it tells me that i need to reboot to create the partition, i click ok, reboot, and nothing happens. suggestions anyone?

something tells me that if youre having problems with this step, maybe you should just install vista on a separate drive instead of playing with partitions.

I personally learned a long time ago to not fuck around with partitions if you have info you don't want to lose on that drive.

But, to each his own.
