I have no choice but to restart my PC.

I comes an Error " G:\ is not accessible. The parameter is incorrect."

I click on Partition Magic 8 ,

There's a reason why Partition Magic has all those warnings that pop up. I hope you had backups because once it hangs in the middle of a resize it's pretty well done for. You may be able to find some expensive data recovery tools that could recover files from that kind of error, but I know of none offhand.

It never ceases to amaze me that people persist in using partition magic and other crap like that...............you get exactly what you deserve................do it properly, or don't bother................but you, like several of my friends have now discovered that have you not?.............

Now, whilst I generally believe in copyright and stuff....................I sincerely hope you did not pay for that garbage

I've used it a number of times, it works great. I would never assume data is safe to begin with however, and *ALWAYS* back my stuff up before resizing or anything like it.
