Hi all, I have a really peculiar (?) problem here, hope someone can shed some light on this cuz it's really bugging me. I have Vista Ultimate x64, and I've been wanting to extend the system partition for like ages now, and yes I do have enough free space to do that. Tried both Hard Disk Manager and Partition Manager - both said I need to use RecoveryCD on my system to be able to do that. Well OK, I created RecoveryCD, which is bootable - supposed to be??? Because try as might, all I end up with is a black screen and a blinking cursor, the thing just never boots up. At least if I try from USB stick, it displays a "Boot failed" message, but nothing else at all. What AM I doing wrong??? :confused:

Seemingly you use DOS CD. You created it from Recovery Media Builder wizard, right? Obviously it doesn't support some of your hardware.

Download Linux based CD, you will find it in Update/Upgrade section of your account (http://kb.paragon-software.com/paragon/templ/221.jsp).
